Queer lives remain at the margins of most academic inquiry into
domestic violence. When same-sex violence is considered, it is most
commonly as an added on, without close attention to the specificity
and meaning of violence within the lives of lesbian/ gay/ bisexual/
transgender/Two-Spirit and queer people (LGBTQ). This edited volume
seeks to change this discourse by bringing together the most
innovative research about intimate partner violence that is
specific to the lives of LGBTQ people. Including contributions
based on research conducted in the United States, the United
Kingdom, Canada and Australia, the volume is framed around central
themes: conceptualizing violence; exploring differing spaces and
lived experiences of violence; and the ethical challenges of
responding to violence. The contributors also consider issues of
race, class, gender, sexuality and other social differences, moving
beyond a simple gender lens to one involving a framework of
intersectionality.
