# Violence by one’s own armed structure: hazing, holding, humiliation and extrajudicial punishment

This article considers violence used to maintain submission in peace and war. Fictional positions of a person held, a participant in pressure and a relative are distinguished. A shared task, seniority, consent, particular responsibility and assistance actually received do not replace one another.

## For whom

For someone facing violence or informal coercion inside their own armed structure, a participant in pressure, relatives and helpers.

## Questions

- Do membership and seniority authorise every form of treatment?
- Does tradition or war make hazing voluntary?
- Are conflict, abuse and torture equivalent?
- Does inner disagreement mean participation has already ended?
- Must a relative replace the whole protection system?

## Boundary

This is no diagnosis, offence classification or determination of powers, service obligations or prisoner-of-war status. Scenes are fictional, not an established case or account of every army. No violence, detention, escape, control-evasion or threat-testing methods are supplied. No dangerous refusal, contact, publicity, independent release, others’ records, restricted copying, concealment, destroyed or altered information, coordinated accounts or trial participation is required. Actual duties need applicable law and competent explanation. A recipient’s competence, independence, powers, access and confidentiality, safe pause, refusal, reporting and publicity, absolute secrecy and actual protection are not promised. Under immediate danger, available urgent help takes priority over the authored exercise, whose therapeutic, legal or protective effectiveness is not established.
