Book Control  Abuse  Bullying and Family Violence in Tourism Industries

Download or read book Control Abuse Bullying and Family Violence in Tourism Industries written by Elisa Zentveld and published by Channel View Publications. This book was released on 2023-03-17 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the roles that control, abuse, bullying and family violence can play within the tourism system. While it is generally understood that such behaviours are significant issues in society, the correlation between these types of behaviour and tourism has not been assessed in scholarly circles. The volume sets out to explain each of these behaviours within tourism industries using autoethnography as its method. This book reveals the heightened risk of family violence during family events, sporting events and in the tourism system, and explains that risks continue and can even increase after separating from a perpetrator of family violence. This is an important and under-researched area in the tourism and events literature and will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in these fields, as well as family violence, social work, health and law.

Book Abuse

Download or read book Abuse written by Jim O'Shea and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines abuse (not clerical or institutional abuse). It explores boundaries and how abuse is an invasion of boundaries. It explores physical, emotional, verbal and financial abuse. The book looks at the abusive personality type, and examines workplace and school bullying. Child abuse is explored, and the issue of staying in or leaving an abusive environment. The question of what happens if one leaves and if it is possible to change an abusive personality is examined. A client's story is contained in the book and this gives a human aspect to the exploration. The majority of relationships are healthy, and abuse can never thrive in a healthy relationship. Love is the basis of all healthy relationships. However, abuse is common and universal. It is perpetrated by both men and women. It is found in every social, cultural, economic and racial background. This book examines five types of abuse - physical, emotional/psychological/mental, verbal, sexual, and financial/economic. The forms of abuse will be looked at in the context of intimate relationships. Bullying in the workplace, which can contain all of these types of abuse, is also explored. The book will focus on adult victims and highlight the harrowing behaviours of abusers. However, because of its importance, there is also a chapter on child abuse. Abuse is driven by toxic shame and rage, and is engraved in the biology of the brain. It is also the offspring of childhood conditioning and can be a learned behaviour, underpinned by irrational thoughts, beliefs and values. Driven by these, abusers use power and control to humiliate the victims, trample on their boundaries, and exert control over them. Among other aspects, this book will explore how the abuser tries to control the victim's time and their material resources; controlling by body language and gestures, by confusing the victim and defining their reality, by blaming, and by reducing the victim's status through demeaning behaviours, violence, sexual control, or perhaps financial manipulation.

Book The Family Man

Download or read book The Family Man written by Ava Burgess and published by A.W.ooo BALTIMORE. This book was released on 2019-10 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A self-help manual written by a healed domestic violence offender for batterers, child abusers, and bullies. A.W. Burgess is a nonjudgmental change agent charged to lovingly help and partner with these violent individuals and those whom they have abused to permanently heal them so others will not become victims or victimizers. Family Man is about the systemic making, breaking, and restoration of a domestic violence offender while addressing the impact of child abuse; unhealthy environments children are exposed to that consequentially harm innocent individuals; perpetual cycles of violence and abuse; and the destruction of legacies and the community they reside. The book does not call offenders out, but instead lovingly calls them in to receive behavioral and mental health solutions that will lead to living a more fulfilled life, while reducing recidivism and divorce. Burgess is the follow-up to the #Me Too and Time's Up movement providing solutions to proactively keep abusers fully accountable and aware of their behavior! Burgess requires violent individuals to submit to their ignorance because what they don't know will hurt others and themselves! Victimizers are in our homes, churches, schools, workplace, hotels, elevators, music concerts, movie theaters, yoga spas, bars, clubs, military bases, etc. Abusers must take control with an aggressive step forward towards a solution or their problems will be stuck in neutral going nowhere, or worse, will be taking many steps in reverse, leading to more significant losses, pain, and more traumatic experiences for ALL mankind! He regrets taking too long to get help for his violent behavior and letting someone know family members were harming him as a child. Ignorance, secrets and silence led to his violence towards others and himself. He paid the price for a crime he never committed as a child and ultimately ended up reciprocating that violence to innocent family members and friends. He's spending the rest of his life trying to save lives and legacies of victims and victimizers! Burgess hopes and prays that this book becomes a powerful resource that frees any individual struggling with the pain of domestic violence, child abuse, & bullying.

Book Special Topics and Particular Occupations  Professions and Sectors

Download or read book Special Topics and Particular Occupations Professions and Sectors written by Premilla D'Cruz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2021-01-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume embodies the twin purpose of highlighting topics beyond the purview of themes commonly associated with workplace bullying, emotional abuse and harassment and of presenting insights into those occupations, professions and sectors which either have received extensive research attention or hold a pronounced propensity to trigger workplace bullying, emotional abuse and harassment. Section 1, which comprises special topics, depicts the intersection between workplace bullying, emotional abuse and harassment and specific circumstances such as whistleblowing and customer abuse or particular attributes such as violence and ostracism. In so doing, it extends the boundaries of the substantive area, stimulating new themes for further inquiry and indicating new areas for action. Section 2 draws attention to how misbehaviour inheres in particular kinds of tasks and livelihoods due to job design, work organization and other elements such as power, external environment, employment patterns and so on. An array of occupations, professions and sectors such as academe, nursing, law, hospitality, precarious work and so on is covered, reflecting emergent developments in the labour market so as to include those with long-standing and considerable research findings and those where empirical inquiries are more recent.
