Résumé
Alors que le domicile devrait représenter la confiance et la sécurité, il peut, du jour au lendemain, devenir une importante source d’insécurité en étant un lieu où différentes formes de harcèlement et de violences sont vécues au quotidien. Comment conceptualiser ces violences ? Cet article présente une recension des écrits portant sur le harcèlement sexuel vécu dans le logement qui est perpétré par des personnes en position de pouvoir comme les propriétaires, gestionnaires d’immeubles et concierges. Bien que cet enjeu touche de nombreuses femmes à travers le monde, cette thématique demeure peu documentée par rapport à d’autres formes de harcèlement et violences sexuelles.

Abstract
While home should represent trust and safety, from one day to the next it can become a major source of insecurity by becoming a site of daily harassment and violence. How can we conceptualize such violence? This paper presents a literature review of sexual harassment in housing that is perpetrated by people in positions of power such as landlords, building managers and superintendents. Although this issue affects many women around the world, it remains under documented in comparison to other forms of sexual harassment and violence.
