Book Synopsis Parricide and Violence Against Parents throughout History by : Marianna Muravyeva
Download or read book Parricide and Violence Against Parents throughout History written by Marianna Muravyeva and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book combines the approaches of history and criminology to study parricide and non-fatal violence against parents from across traditional period and geographical boundaries, encompassing research on Asia as well as Europe and North America. Parricide and non-fatal violence against parents are rare but significant forms of family violence. They have been perceived to be a recent phenomenon related to bad parenting and child abuse often in poorer socioeconomic circumstances – yet they have a history, which provides insights for modern-day explanation and intervention. Research on violence against parents has concentrated on child abuse and mental illness but, by using a rich array of primary and secondary documents, such as court cases, criminal statistics, newspaper reports, and legal and medical literature, this book shows that violence against parents is also shaped by conflicts related to parental authority, the rise of children’s rights, conflicting economic and emotional expectations, and other sociohistorical factors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parricide and Violence Against Parents takes a historical and criminological approach to the research on parricide and violence against parents, placing the research in the context of social development from the 1500s to contemporary society, and giving a global overview and comparison. The book examines parricide and violence against parents as historically and culturally sensitive phenomena. It offers evidence on a seemingly rare subject from different eras, areas, and cultures, and then uses the cross-disciplinary data to produce a new, systematic insight for the reader. Case studies shift the discussion from the contemporary focus on adolescent to parent abuse, to examining the sources of conflict during life cycles of parents and their offspring. A historical approach illuminates the variations in conflicts between parents and their offspring that are shaped by the life stages of the victims and offenders themselves across time. The book argues that parental authority has been marked by property ownership and tax paying responsibilities throughout history. The continued possession of property resulted in power, the reluctance to part with it, becoming a notable source of conflict across generations within families. Parental authority was protected by means of heavy penalties and punishments and didactic teachings in almost every society at every stage of historical development. It was also challenged constantly by children as a part of their coming into adulthood. The abuse of parents has often been connected to situations where adult children were prevented from gaining the amount of independence appropriate to their position in life. This led to disputes over authority and the legitimate grounds for that authority. Offering an insight into complicated and interconnected histories of generational conflicts and how they affect modern families in different parts of the world, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of criminology, history of crime, history of the family, family violence, homicide studies, gender studies, history of emotions, political violence, and social work.

Book Synopsis Young People Using Family Violence by : Kate Fitz-Gibbon
Download or read book Young People Using Family Violence written by Kate Fitz-Gibbon and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-08 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the use of violence by children and young people in family settings and proposes specialised and age-appropriate responses to these children and young people It interrogates the adequacy and effectiveness of current service and justice system responses, including analysis of police, court and specialist service responses. It proposes new approaches to children and young people who use violence that are evidence based, non-punitive, and informed by an understanding of the complexity of needs and the importance of age appropriate service responses. Bringing together a range of Australian and International experts, it sheds new light on questions such as: How can we best understand and respond to the use of family violence by young people? To what extent do traditional family violence responses address the experiences of adolescents who use violence in family settings? What barriers to help seeking exist for parental and sibling victims of adolescent family violence? To what degree do existing support and justice services provide adequate responses to those using adolescent family violence and their families? In what circumstances do children kill their biological and adopted parents? The explicit focus on child and adolescent family violence produces new knowledge in the area of family violence, which will be of relevance to academics, policy makers and family violence practitioners in Australia and internationally.

Book Synopsis Encyclopedia of Domestic Violence by : Nicky Ali Jackson
Download or read book Encyclopedia of Domestic Violence written by Nicky Ali Jackson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-12-11 with total page 802 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of Domestic Violence is a modern reference from the leading international scholars in domestic violence research. This ground-breaking project has created the first ever publication of an encyclopedia of domestic violence. The primary goal of the Encyclopedia is to provide information on a variety of traditional, as well as breakthrough, issues in this complex phenomenon. The coverage of the Encyclopedia is broad and diverse, encompassing the entire life span from infancy to old age. The entries include the traditional research areas, such as battered women, child abuse and dating violence. However, this Encyclopedia is unique in that it includes many under-studied areas of domestic violence, such as ritual abuse-torture within families, domestic violence against women with disabilities, pseudo-family violence and domestic violence within military families. It is also unique in that it examines cross-cultural perspectives of domestic violence. One of the key special features in this Encyclopedia is the cross-reference section at the end of each entry. This allows the reader the ability to continue their research of a particular topic. This book will be an easy-to-read reference guide on a host of topics, which are alphabetically arranged. Precautions have been taken to ensure that the Encyclopedia is not politically slanted; rather, it is hoped that it will serve as a basic guide to better understanding the myriad issues surrounding this labyrinthine topic. Topics covered include: Victims of Domestic Violence; Theoretical Perspectives and Correlates to Domestic Violence; Cross-Cultural Perspectives and Religious Perspectives; Understudied Areas within Domestic Violence Research; Domestic Violence and the Law; and Child Abuse and Elder Abuse.
Book Synopsis THE FACES OF VIOLENCE by : George B. Palermo
Download or read book THE FACES OF VIOLENCE written by George B. Palermo and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thoroughly revised and rewritten, this new Second Edition addresses the manifestations of violence with an unusual clarity and down-to-earth objectivity that studies poverty, drugs, access to guns, joblessness, poor education, inadequate housing, and the lack of stability that comes from an integrated family. Doctor Palermo has spent a lifetime observing criminal violence as a psychiatrist for Milwaukee County. He is well known for his plainspoken, unpretentious testimony in the trial of serial killer, Jeffrey Dahmer. The author takes the position that there is an absence in the United States of a coherent culture, of its material obsession, the destructiveness of welfare, the disintegration of the family unit and how all these forces have come together to perpetuate and increase violence in our daily lives. Although the book deals with crimes against the physical person, other forms of criminal behavior that have recently appeared on the social scene are explored, such as Internet crimes, white-collar crimes, and identity theft. It is a must read for all those professionals in the psychiatric, criminological, and forensic fields.
