The helping professions and social scientists traditionally seek
concepts and paradigms that can be used in shaping research and
services focused on marginalized populations in the United States.
Various perspectives have garnered attention across disciplines
with intersectionality as a recent, salient example. However,
state-sanctioned violence-built upon the foundation established by
Intersectionality-introduces a purposeful socio-political agenda
that is carried out by various levels of government to subjugate a
group due to its beliefs, physical characteristics, and/or social
circumstances. This book provides a conceptual foundation on
state-sanctioned violence; critiques how this perspective holds
relevance for social work research, education, and practice;
examines specific examples of how and where state-sanctioned
violence is manifested; and projects potential developments into
the near future.
