Domestic Violence Treatment for Abusive Women
Author: Ellen L. Bowen
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136867236
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
Most therapists have experience with wives, girlfriends, and children of violent men, never suspecting that domestic violence offenders can be women too. In Domestic Violence Treatment for Abusive Women, Bowen challenges us to re-think our gender and violence constructs and guides clinicians through the emerging field of treatment of female abusers. Unlike other books designed for male clients that may be adapted to women, this book is specifically written for use with women, with handouts and exercises created from the author’s own clinical experience. It is deliberately designed to give clinicians knowledge to deal with all aspects of female domestic violence, from dealing with their first client to filling out paperwork correctly. The first part of the book is dedicated to defining female violence and helping readers overcome pre-existing gender stereotypes. The second part provides a framework for everything a therapist needs in order to set up and facilitate a domestic violence treatment program for women. As a whole, Domestic Violence Treatment for Abusive Women helps the licensed mental health professional understand women’s domestic violence and offers step-by-step direction for successful therapy.

Policing 'Domestic' Violence
Author: Susan S. M. Edwards
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1040299806
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
Violence in the home, particularly assault by a man on his wife or girlfriend, is an everyday phenomenon. What should the police and law courts do about it? In Policing ‘Domestic’ Violence, first published in 1989, reissued here with a new preface, Susan Edwards draws upon her extensive research into their actual responses, both before and after recent initiatives towards reform at the time, to address the practical and theoretical issues for criminology and feminism. Examining police and court practice, the author exposes the ways in which the patriarchal ideology enshrined in the law, and the masculine ethos of the police and legal profession, ensure that women receive less justice and less protection. She documents in detail the processes by which crimes against women are trivialized. The book combines a review of international research with the author’s own five-year exploration of policing in the UK through interviews with officers, observation and a review of record-keeping practice. It covers the introduction of new policing policies and offers a preliminary assessment of their success together with practical proposals for the future. At a theoretical level, this title addresses the key problems of criminality and punishment. Is it possible to reconcile the feminist critique of the marginalization of so-called domestic violence with the radical critique of the punitive system as oppressive and counterproductive? Does the protection of women justify infringement of family privacy? The book should be read in its historical context by students of criminology, law, women’s studies and sociology, as well as those concerned with policies and practical measures for dealing with violence in the home.

Domestic Violence in the Anglophone Caribbean
Author: Ann Marie Bissessar
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030884767
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Domestic violence continues to be a social problem that is rarely understood or discussed in many parts of the world. The same holds true in the Anglophone Caribbean. The Caribbean context is unique as it was birthed out of colonization, which was violent and brutal for those who were forced to migrate from another country as enslaved labor, as well as for those who were conquered out of their lands. Most Caribbean islands’ societies were created and developed by slaves, colonizers, and indentured servants. This history has left an indelible scar on all involved, which is exemplified by the antagonistic way people interact, whether it is between races, ethnicities, religions, or gender. Traditionally, domestic relationships and causal factors for domestic violence has been investigated from a myriad of perspectives including the ethnic lineage of the participants. However, in the Caribbean due to its historic origins, domestic violence should also be examined through the lens of its colonial past. This book examines the consequences of allowing domestic violence to perpetuate in the region. It then looks at some of practices used to provide support and find justice for victims and perpetrators in a Caribbean cultural context.

Author: Mary Beth Phelan, MD
Publisher: Springer Publishing Company
ISBN: 0826125360
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Despite the need and the potential for healthcare providers to play an active role in prevention and intervention into domestic violence, there is little evidence that they are doing so in large numbers or systematic ways. This book reviews the literature on screening, identification, intervention, and prevention of partner violence across healthcare specialties and disciplines to benefit the development of effective domestic violence prevention programs. Primary care, psychiatric and mental health care, emergency department settings as well as subspecialties such as emergency rooms, ophthalmology, and infectious disease are considered.

Languages : en
Pages : 74
Book Description
This book is dedicated to all the Police Officers who have given their lives in the line of duty while responding to Domestic Violence calls and to all the children, women, men and elderly who fall victim to Domestic Violence every day. Most stories are horrific and brutal, while other cases lead toward that outcome. I hope this training book Curriculum will explain some of the reasons Domestic Violence happens, and some solutions that may help in preventing such acts of violence from occurring to you or others, and for possibly saving one's life. This book is also a great training curriculum for any law enforcement agency.
