Since the 1970s the issue of intimate partner violence (IPV) has
been explained through the patriarchal desire of men to control and
dominate women, but this gendered perspective limits both our
understanding of IPV and its treatment. Intimate Partner Violence:
New Perspectives in Research and Practice is the first book of its
kind to present a detailed and rigorous critique of current
domestic violence research and practice within the same volume. In
this challenging new text, with contributions from the UK, the US,
and Canada, the subject is assessed from a more holistic position.
It provides a critical analysis of the issue of domestic violence
including issues that are often not part of the mainstream
discussion. Each of the chapters tackles a different area of
research or practice, from a critical review of contemporary topics
in domestic violence research, including a critical review of men's
use of violence in relationships, a consideration of male victims,
IPV within the LGBTQ+ community, perceptions of perpetrators and
victims, and IPV within adolescent populations. The second half of
the book examines challenges and opportunities for professionals
working in the field and includes an analysis of an evidence
informed perpetrator programme, the challenges faced working with
male victims, and a discussion of the impact of domestic violence
on children. Culminating with a series of evidence-based
recommendations to bridge the divide between academic and
practitioner stakeholders and to inform future working practices,
this is an essential resource for students and practitioners alike.
