Everyone working in health and social care is at one point or
another confronted by violent behaviour and its consequences.
Addressing Violence, Abuse and Oppression provides a broad overview
of violence in relation to a range of groups and areas that involve
human service professionals. Adopting an international perspective,
this book looks at the ways in which violence, abuse and oppression
can be clearly associated with power imbalances which are often
gendered and which are covertly or overtly manifested at a range of
levels including the interpersonal as well as the organizational
and the political. It explores debates and challenges with regard
to theoretical orientations, policy frameworks and how power
imbalances intersect with a range of influencing factors including
gender, poverty, indigenous/ethnic issues, class and sexuality.
Examining the implications for human service professionals, each
chapter of Addressing Violence, Abuse and Oppression provides an
historical overview, explores theoretical perspectives, examines
specific policy and practice context, appraises the contribution
from research and assesses the impact for individuals and groups.
