Globally, nationally and locally men's violence against women is an
endemic social problem and an enduring human rights issue. Unlike
men who are most likely to be victims of stranger assaults and
violence, official data shows that women are most likely to be
attacked, beaten, raped and killed by men known to them - either
partners or family members. Research has maintained that to
challenge and prevent men's violence against women, changing the
attitudes and behaviour of young people is essential. This
ground-breaking book presents the first investigation into what
younger people think about men's violence against women. It does
this by locating their constructions and understandings within the
temporal and spatial location of childhood. Through challenging the
perception that young people are too young to 'know' about violence
or to offer opinions on it, Nancy Lombard demonstrates the ways to
talk to younger people about men's violence. Through confronting
preconceptions of younger people's existing knowledge, capabilities
and understanding, she demonstrates that this is a subject which
young people can confidently discuss.
