Young Men and Domestic Abuse: Routledge Advances in Criminology

Autor David Gadd, Claire L. Fox, Mary-Louise Corr, Steph Alger, Ian Butler
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 23 iul 2015
Surveys reveal that domestic abuse is more commonplace among teenagers and young adults than older populations, yet surprisingly little is written about young men’s involvement in it. Reporting on a three-year study based in the UK, this book explores young men’s involvement in domestic abuse, whether as victims, perpetrators or witnesses to violent behaviors between adults. Original survey data, focus group material and in-depth biographical interviews are used to make the case for a more thoroughgoing engagement with the meanings young men come to attribute to violent behavior, include the tendency among many to configure violence within families as "fights" that call for acts of male heroism. The book also highlights the dearth of services interventions for young men prone to domestic abuse, and the challenges of developing responsive practice in this area. Each section of the book highlights further online resources that those looking to conduct research in this area or apply its insights in practice can draw upon.

Descriere

This book explores young men and domestic abuse: their experiences of it as victims, witnesses and perpetrators, what they think about it, and what they want done about it. Co-authored by leading figures in the fields of criminology, psychology and social work, this text draws on the findings of three new research projects to answer questions about how domestic abuse among young people is best conceptualised; why some young people perpetrate it, how some develop resilience to it; and how practitioners and policymakers should respond to it.
