Inductive Analysis

This chapter analyses experiences of violence among queer immigrants in Norway. The aim of the chapter is to explore the various experiences of violence, and how vulnerability to violence is related to the wider patterns of discrimination and juridical, economic and social marginalisation. Based on an inductive analysis of interviews with 41 lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and intersex people with immigrant backgrounds, we have identified four key themes: 1) Sexual abuse, 2) violence in relation to coming out as queer, 3) exposure to violence within Norwegian institutions dealing with immigration and integration, and 4) racism and violence. The experiences of violence that the participants talk about include violence from family members, acquaintances, strangers and representatives of public institutions. In order to understand queer immigrants’ experiences of violence, it is necessary to focus on the interconnectedness of various forms of violence that take place in different arenas and in different relationships. Moreover, violence needs to be understood in connection to discrimination and marginalisation based on the status as immigrant and queer.

Determinant Factor

In the Arab world, the recognized children of elite men and slave women could adopt the status of their father, ignoring the slave origin of the mother, owing to a system of patrilineal transmission. This regime co-existed with negative stereotypes toward slaves and blackness, despite the very fact that—as this study of notable families in Tetouan between 1859 and 1956 demonstrates—skin color was not the determinant factor to form part of this group. Rather, it was based on the social definition of filiation, leading to legal disputes between family members to delineate the boundaries of kinship.

The right of family members of Union citizens to live with them in the host Member State has always been considered essential for an effective freedom of movement of citizens. However, the provisions of Directive 2004/38/EC contain a different description of the scope of rights of family members of Union citizens taking advantage of the freedom of movement of persons as to the possibility of accompanying or joining EU citizens taking advantage of the freedom of movement of persons, depending on whether they belong to the circle of ‘closer’ or ‘distant’ family members. This issue acquires particular significance in the context of family members who are not citizens of any Member State of the Union. For individuals belonging to the circle of ‘closer’ family members, the EU legislator grants the subjective right to accompany or join a Union citizen exercising the right of the freedom of movement of persons. In the latter case, the legislator only obliges the host Member States to facilitate entry and residence for such individuals in accordance with their national legislation. The glossed judgment, by determining the status of individuals under legal guardianship within the framework of the Algerian kafala system as a ‘distant’ family member of a Union citizen, clearly touches upon a significant issue in the context of the Union’s freedom of movement of persons.

This qualitative study examines gay and bisexual adolescent experiences with parental and family support using a phenomenological inquiry approach. Four themes related to peer support emerged from the data including (1) coming out was necessary; (2) initial reactions of parents are most often not positive; (3) lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth view religion as a barrier to support from parents; and (4) LGBTQ youth want explicit support from parents and family members. Implications for counselors working with parents, families, and individuals are discussed.

Autologous Hct

Abstract Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) has been successfully used as replacement therapy for patients with aplastic anemia and hemoglobinopathies. Both autologous and allogeneic HCT following high-dose chemotherapy can correct manifestations of autoimmune diseases. The impressive allogeneic graft-versus-tumor effects seen in patients given HCT for hematological malignancies have stimulated trials of allogeneic immunotherapy in patients with otherwise refractory metastatic solid tumors. This session will update the status of HCT in the treatment of benign hematological diseases and solid tumors. In Section I, Dr. Rainer Storb reviews the development of nonmyeloablative conditioning for patients with severe aplastic anemia who have HLA-matched family members. He also describes the results in patients with aplastic anemia given HCT from unrelated donors after failure of responding to immunosuppressive therapy. The importance of leuko-poor and in vitro irradiated blood product transfusions for avoiding graft rejection will be discussed. In Section II, Dr. Guido Lucarelli reviews the status of marrow transplantation for thalassemia major and updates results obtained in children with class I and class II severity of thalassemia. He also describes results of new protocols for class III patients and efforts to extend HCT to thalassemic patients without HLA-matched family members. In Section III, Dr. Peter McSweeney reviews the current status of HCT for severe autoimmune diseases. He summarizes the results of autologous HCT for systemic sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus, and reviews the status of planned Phase III studies for autologous HCT for these diseases in North America and Europe. He also discusses a possible role of allogeneic HCT in the treatment of these diseases. In Section IV, Dr. Richard Childs discusses the development and application of nonmyeloablative HCT as allogeneic immunotherapy for treatment-refractory solid tumors. He reviews the results of pilot clinical trials demonstrating graft-versus-solid tumor effects in a variety of metastatic cancers and describes efforts to characterize the immune cell populations mediating these effects, as well as newer methods to target the donor immune system to the tumor.

Accepting and sharing about oneself as a sexual and gender minority (SGM) individual is complex. This is even more complex for individuals who identify as both SGM and Latino because they possess more than one minoritized identity. As a result, SGM Latino youth are more susceptible to higher levels of stress, which if not effectively managed, can lead to homelessness, anxiety and depression, and substance abuse. Latino family members find it difficult to learn how to positively interact with their SGM family member (e.g., in the early phases of coming out). In this quantitative survey study, researchers examined survey data collected from 1,877 Latino youth concerning home experiences, health, identity, and parental nativity. Data were drawn from the LGBTQ National Teen Survey, an online, anonymous comprehensive survey designed to advance understanding of the experiences of SGM adolescents (13-17 years of age). The survey, developed and distributed by the Human Rights Campaign, examined perceptions of familial acceptance regarding SGM identity during youth. Significant relationships were found between family acceptance, sexual orientation, and parental nativity (birthplace of parents in- or outside of the United States). The findings provide for a rich discussion about the implications for helping Latino SGM youth and educating Latino family members.

It takes seconds of impulsiveness for an act of sexual abuse to cross the thin line to convert into an act of sexual violence and vice-versa. There are cases where the act of sexual violence is initiated with consent, and there are acts of sexual violence that fall under the umbrella term sexual assault. This chapter examines the role of violence in sexual abuse, i.e. sexual violence. The first section reviews the definitions of sexual violence and throwing some light on forms of violence in sexual abuse and violation of consent during an act of sexual violence. The second section reviews the risk factors and causal for sexual violence. The third section presents an overview of different perspectives on violence in context to sexual abuse are mentioned and examined.
