| Sumario: | By centring violence to children (as represented here by physical violence to children, children experiencing intimate partner violence and child sexual abuse), we demonstrate that those three forms of violence to children overlap with one another in complex, important ways and similarly interconnect with other forms of violence to children. Moreover, violence to children intersects with many other manifestations of violence or extreme oppression including: violence to women, militarism, war and conflict, violence between men, digital violence, sexual exploitation/trafficking, ethnic violence, nationalist violence, post-colonialist violence, racism, ageism, disablism, heterosexism, classism, sexism and epistemic injustice. Violence is viewed as social practice, constituted by complex, often contradictory, paradoxical and constantly morphing intersectional relations of unequal power relations, specific to time and space. In its turn, violence as social practice then reinforces those myriad unequal relations of power within which children and adults exist. Finally, the chapter demonstrates that men’s practices with children are just as key to the generation of oppressive forms of masculinity as men’s practices in relation to women, to other men and to themselves: a key role often unrecognised in both “mainstream” scholarship and, more surprisingly, in critical studies of men – with some notable exceptions. |
