Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Violence: Probing the Boundaries around the World the contributors analyse implicitly and explicitly the conceptualisation of violent processes across the world, as well as the circumstances that enable them to exist, and open ways to imagine valuable interventions. This collection of articles presented on the 11th Global Conference in Prague makes clear how fascinating violence is, and how difficult to cope with and to initiate changes. Through explicit thinking, the book opens ways to develop and to plan relevant initiatives and valuable interventions that are culture sensitive.

Download or read book Youth Violence written by I. M. Rachia and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 1999 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bibliography comprises a selection of Library of Congress catalog records for some 1,500 books, periodicals, and websites related to youth violence. Anyone wanting such a bibliography could probably compile it from the Library of Congress web site, and the deficiencies in conception and design of this "product" defy understanding. A brief preface sounds an alarm--"...no one should be surprised that youth violence lurks behind every school house door"--but sets forth no criteria for selection of citations (no indication of time frame, purpose, or audience). Entries are arranged alphabetically by title within chapters on school violence, guns and youth, gangs, campus violence, dating and violence, and periodicals and Web sites. Unforgivably primitive alphabetic sorting puts all titles beginning with The together (the same with other articles); and, in addition, those titles are indexed together! Though the title indicates the presence of "abstracts," there are none except the summaries supplied by Library of Congress for juvenile titles (of which there are many). Cross-referencing and indexing (except by title) are absent. The compiler's credentials, motivation, and orientation are not cited. Furthermore, with better design, the contents would have consumed half the number of pages, and a few typeface variations would have eased scanning.

Download or read book Cruel But Not Unusual written by Ramona Alaggia and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2022-10-25 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picture family life in Canada. Does it include women or girls being murdered, on average, every two and a half days? Or the fact that intimate partner violence counts as nearly one-third of all reports to police? Or that child or elder abuse is more common than you might imagine? Written for students, instructors, practitioners, and advocates in all related fields, this expanded and updated third edition of Cruel But Not Unusual: Violence in Families in Canada offers the latest research, thinking, and strategies to address this hard reality in Canada today. Violence takes many forms inside relationships and families, and the systems charged with responding and helping can actually add to the harm, further isolating and endangering victims. Nowhere is this more evident than in intentionally marginalized communities, such as Indigenous, Black, people of colour, LGBTQI2S+, people with disabilities, and immigrant, refugee, and non-status women. From recommendations on resisting anti-Black state-sanctioned violence, to a call to action on partner abuse within LGBTQI2S+ communities, the book offers bold ideas for moving forward, highlighting the work of researchers and activists from these communities. Using a range of perspectives (feminist, trauma-informed, intersectional, anti-oppression) and including diverse couple and family relationships and settings (foster care, group homes, institutions), the contributors track violence across the life course, addressing the impact on the brain, trauma, coercive control, resilience, disclosing abuse, the MeToo movement, self-care, and providing practical case examples and guidelines for working with children, youth, adults, couples, families, and groups. The result is an authoritative source that offers new insights and approaches to inform understanding, policy, practice, and prevention.

Download or read book The Intricacies of Love and Intimacy written by Ami Rokach and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-30 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the meaning of love and intimacy from a variety of perspectives, specifically philosophical, psychological and cultural. This volume is a focussed study on what makes them and what may break love and intimacy. Love and intimacy are central to us, is sought by almost everyone, and while we seem to know what they are, they are not easily described. The present volume includes eleven chapters which are divided into two parts. The first part describes the meaning of love, intimacy, and romantic relations, and the second highlights what may go wrong in such relationships, and why. The book explores theoretical debates and contemporary research around emotions and will be of interest to students and researchers of psychology, philosophy as well as sex, marriage and family therapists and counselors. The chapters in this book were originally published in The Journal of Psychology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le massacre de l'École polytechnique à Montréal en 1989 ou bien encore le meurtre de la jeune Marie-Eve Larivière en 1992 ont fait rebondir le débat sur la violence à la télévision au Canada. Plus d'un million de personnes ont signé, à la suite de ce dernier drame, une pétition réclamant un renforcement du contrôle du contenu des programmes. Quelques faits sordides et sanglants ont eu le même impact sur une société américaine déjà ébranlée par les émeutes de Los Angeles et le revisionnement incessant de lynchages en direct, qu'il s'agisse de l'assassinat de touristes européens en Floride ou du meurtre gratuit du père de Michael Jordan par deux adolescents en Géorgie. Un débat identique se déroule alors aux États-Unis où, au début du mois d'août 1993, producteurs et directeurs de chaînes réunis à Los Angeles tentent d'élaborer un code de bonne conduite visant à réduire l'omniprésence de la violence sur les écrans de télévision américains. En France, le CSA adresse régulièrement des mises en garde aux chaînes, y compris publiques, contre les dérives de la programmation en ce qui concerne la violence et la sexualité
