From early modernity to today, society has encountered various
forms of interpersonal violence. Through exploration of particular
areas within Europe and Russia to Africa, America and Asia, this
collection presents both differences and connections among various
forms of interpersonal violence in different times, places,
institutional orders and relationships. Interpersonal Violence
introduces research results from studies in various disciplines,
such as history, sociology, social policy social work, cultural
studies, and gender studies. In focusing on the diverse and often
ignored social locations and cultural backgrounds of interpersonal
violence, the book demonstrates 1) how the specificity of
temporality and spatiality affect the manifestation of violence, 2)
how the dynamics of intersectional and institutional differences
are located in social space and time, and 3) how the different
forms of violence in different times are affectively, conceptually
and discursively connected. With its comprehensive and integrative
approach, this book is a key tool book for understanding the
phenomenon and cultural conceptions of interpersonal violence. It
would be most suitable for upper level undergraduates, graduates
doctoral students interested in social sciences, history,
criminology, psychology, cultural studies, education, gender
studies and public health.

This book presents new conceptual and theoretical approaches to
violence studies. As the first research anthology to examine
violating interpersonal, institutional and ideological practices as
both gendered and affective processes, it raises novel questions
and offers insights for understanding and resolving social and
cultural problems related to violence and its prevention. The book
offers multidisciplinary perspectives on various forms and
intersections of different types of violence. The research ranges
from the early modern era to the present day in Europe, US, Africa
and Australia, representing disciplines such as gender studies,
history, literature, linguistics, media and cultural studies,
psychology, social psychology, social work, social policy,
sociology and environmental humanities. With its integrative
approach, the book proposes new ideas and tools for academics and
practitioners to improve their theoretical and practical
understandings of these phenomena as a source of multidimensional
inequality in a globalized world.
