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.
