Coercive control is the most common and devastating means used to
subjugate women in personal and family life. Drawing on FBI
statistics, health records, interviews with victims and
perpetrators, and forensic analysis of dramatic cases from the
author's experience, Evan Stark, a leading proponent and scholar,
provides the authoritative description of coercive control. The
book identifies its elements, dynamics, and consequences, including
the harms it poses to liberty rights and privacy rights; and
proposes effective interventions, including new laws and means of
policing and supporting perpetrators and victims. Sweeping aside
outdated, entrenched views of woman abuse, Coercive Control
emphasizes the importance of addressing women's diminishment and
subordination in personal life as part of the global equity agenda.
