Scally briefly considers definitional issues in defining intimate partner violence and abuse (IPVA) in England and Wales. Intimate partner violence and abuse is placed in the context of gender-based violence, applying feminist theories such as those by Pence and Paymar (Developing a Coordinated Community Response: An Introduction. In M. Shepard & E. Pence (Eds.), Coordinating Community Responses to Domestic Violence: Lessons from the Duluth Model (pp. 3–23). Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage, 1990), Stanko (Everyday Violence: How Women and Men Experience Sexual and Physical Danger. Pandora, 1995), and Stark (Coercive Control: How Men Entrap Women in Personal Life. Oxford University Press, 2007). Evolutionary, biological, and psychodynamic explanations of intimate partner violence and abuse perpetration are provided as alternative perspectives and their limitations are addressed. IPVA is considered in the context of the child contact system, with three studies exploring survivor experiences of the system introduced prior to the findings of each study being discussed throughout the remaining chapters. The chapter works towards goals 5 (gender equality) and 16 (peace, justice, and strong institutions) of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals.

摘要

Scally briefly considers definitional issues in defining intimate partner violence and abuse (IPVA) in England and Wales. Intimate partner violence and abuse is placed in the context of gender-based violence, applying feminist theories such as those by Pence and Paymar (Developing a Coordinated Community Response: An Introduction. In M. Shepard & E. Pence (Eds.), Coordinating Community Responses to Domestic Violence: Lessons from the Duluth Model (pp. 3–23). Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage, 1990), Stanko (Everyday Violence: How Women and Men Experience Sexual and Physical Danger. Pandora, 1995), and Stark (Coercive Control: How Men Entrap Women in Personal Life. Oxford University Press, 2007). Evolutionary, biological, and psychodynamic explanations of intimate partner violence and abuse perpetration are provided as alternative perspectives and their limitations are addressed. IPVA is considered in the context of the child contact system, with three studies exploring survivor experiences of the system introduced prior to the findings of each study being discussed throughout the remaining chapters. The chapter works towards goals 5 (gender equality) and 16 (peace, justice, and strong institutions) of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals.
