It goes beyond simplistic narratives of \"good\" and \"bad\" men or as mere expressions of specific structures and practices. Instead, it initiates challenging conversations about how our embeddedness in gendered discourses shapes our perceptions of possible and desirable responses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInnovatively, this book embraces feminist poststructural theorizing to challenge and enrich our understanding of men's use of domestic violence. Each chapter is dedicated to exploring a particular area of tension, unraveling the intricate complexities that characterize domestic violence policy and practice. Case studies provide a focal point for examining the dilemmas, challenges, and contested nature of ideas, meanings, and practices within this realm. Rather than offering straightforward solutions, each chapter fosters a space for exploring ambiguity and complexity, allowing us to acknowledge the discomfort and resist the urge to resolve it prematurely.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSituated within this contested and uncomfortable terrain, this book represents a modest yet significant step toward reimagining our approaches to domestic violence. It will appeal to scholars and students of gender studies, sociology, health, and social care, as it offers valuable insights into the multifaceted nature of this issue.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 420g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 198 x 129 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367774288\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kate Seymour,Sarah Wendt,Kristin Natalier","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44104906178810,"sku":"9780367774288","price":133.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1677854635055_book.jpg?v=1678174577","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/responding-to-domestic-violence-difficult-conversations-9780367774288","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
