商品描述

This book provides a textured understanding of intimate violence across the unlimited stretch of human relationships, institutions, and social structures. The volume has been conceptualized with the overarching objective to provide the reader with a collection of thoughtfully selected chapters that critically examine existing literature for an in-depth analysis of institutions through the lens of violence, beyond disciplinary and topical boundaries, from a range of methodologies. The book encourages reflections on the complexities of society, its institutions and gendered norms that enmesh violence and intimate relationships. It further examines the socio-normative contexts within which violence operates as a tool for maintaining inequalities in society. The chapters in this volume attempt to address questions such as: What are the complexities in the relationship between the perpetrator and the victim which sustain and legitimize violence? What are the diverse dimensions of violence in intimate relationships? What role does violence in intimate spaces play in preserving status quo and the pervasive gendered hierarchies within society and its institutions? Who is vulnerable to violence and why? The book covers conversations on intimate space violence and relationships that have not been explored hitherto in mainstream academic debates. The volume pivots violence fundamentally as a product of 'entitlements' based on gendered social hierarchies and critical intersectionalities to examine its manifestations in a variety of intimate situations and relationships beyond socio-cultural, religious and geographical boundaries. The book provides invaluable learnings for academics, researchers, students, lawyers, sociologists, social workers, health professionals and policymakers.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書提供了對人類關係、機構和社會結構中的親密暴力的深入理解。本書的主要目標是通過精心選擇的章節,從不同的方法論角度批判性地檢視現有文獻,以深入分析暴力在機構中的作用,超越學科和主題的界限。本書鼓勵對社會、機構和性別規範的複雜性進行反思,這些規範使暴力與親密關係緊密相連。它進一步研究了社會規範背景下的暴力運作,作為維持社會不平等的工具。本書的章節試圖回答以下問題:維持和合法化暴力的施暴者和受害者之間的關係的複雜性是什麼?親密關係中的暴力有哪些不同的維度?親密空間中的暴力在維護現狀和社會及其機構中普遍存在的性別等級制度方面扮演了什麼角色?誰容易受到暴力的傷害,為什麼?本書涵蓋了迄今在主流學術辯論中尚未探索的關於親密空間暴力和關係的討論。本書將暴力基本上視為基於性別社會等級和關鍵交叉性的「權利」的產物,以檢視其在各種親密情境和關係中的表現,超越社會文化、宗教和地理界限。本書對學者、研究人員、學生、律師、社會學家、社會工作者、醫療專業人員和政策制定者提供了寶貴的學習資源。
