RT Book T1 Understanding violence and abuse: an anti-oppressive practice perspective A1 Fraser, Heather 1965- A1 Seymour, Kate LA English PP Halifax Winnipeg PB Fernwood Publishing YR 2017 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1645326187 AB "In Understanding Violence and Abuse, Heather Fraser and Kate Seymour examine violence and abuse from an anti-oppressive practice perspective and make connections between interpersonal violence and structural, institutional and cultural violence. Using case studies from Canada, the U.K., the U.S., Australia, Bangladesh, India and elsewhere, the authors discuss topics ranging from class oppression, street violence, white privilege, war, shame, religious phobia and abuse in intimate relationships, as well as introduce the core tenets of anti-oppressive social work practice. They encourage readers to reflect upon hierarchies of identity and difference in relation to the ways in which violence and abuse are defined, understood and addressed. Further, they discuss several responses to violence using an anti-oppressive framework."-- NO Includes bibliographical references and index CN HM886 SN 9781552668870 K1 Violence : Social aspects K1 Violence : Psychological aspects K1 Psychological abuse K1 OPPRESSION (Psychology) K1 Social case work K1 Violence : Case studies K1 Psychological abuse : Case studies K1 Gewalttätigkeit : Unterdrückung : Machtmissbrauch : Sozialpsychologie : Soziale Gerechtigkeit : Sozialarbeit
