mental violence isn’t a thing, it’s only referenced in passing twice, once is the footnotes (might i add this is actually an incorrectly found variation) so more accurately, once. Mental violence in that case is almost certainly referring to what most people would consider “abuse” not violence, mental abuse can technically be violent, but that’s usually because it’s physically violent. Economic violence is technically a thing, but it’s a separate defined category of it’s own. Most often related to violence, not strictly related to physical violence per se, but depriving someone of food they require to survive, i think is deemed “violent” by most people. And in some capacity, is physically violent.
And yes, it defines physical violence as physical violence, i think that was literally my entire point.
There are technically abstracted concepts of violence like structural or cultural violence (economic violence is one of these btw) but these aren’t actually a direct engagement of violence, merely a collective trend among a group of people, in relation to violence.
Violence isn’t just killing, it’s physical, mental, and economic. The most significant power we hold is economic violence.

thats uh, an interesting way to define “non violence”
Perhaps you should try some other word like uh, non compliance.
Your own source defines physical, mental and economic as violence.
