Taylor & Francis Ltd Campus Sexual Violence
Book SynopsisCampus Sexual Violence: A State of Institutionalized Sexual Terrorism conceptualizes sexual violence on college campuses as a form of sexual terrorism, arguing that institutional compliance and inaction within the neoliberal university perpetuate a system of sexual terrorism. Using a sexual terrorism framework, the authors examine a myriad of examples of campus sexual violence with an intersectional lens and explore the role of the institution and the influence of neoliberalism in undermining sexual violence prevention efforts. The book utilizes Carole Sheffield's five components of sexual terrorism (ideology, propaganda, amorality, perceptions of the perpetrator, and voluntary compliance) to describe how the ivory tower stereotype and adoption of neoliberal values into education contribute to an environment where victimization is painfully common. Cases such as those from Michigan State University and Baylor University are used as examples to highliTrade Review"In this book, Sarah Prior and Brooke de Heer shine a much-needed spotlight on the role of institutions of higher education in creating, maintaining, and perpetuating harm associated with sexual violence. By adopting an institutional lens, they invite all of us to consider how our strategies must engage with the institutional forces shaping modern American universities if we hope to meaningfully prevent sexual violence on campus. This book is truly a must-read for anyone who cares about ending campus sexual assault!"- Carrie Moylan, Associate Professor, Michigan State University"Campus Sexual Violence: A State of Institutionalized Sexual Terrorism is a must-read for anyone concerned about the insidious prevalence of sexual violence— and rape culture altogether— on our university campuses. This insightful, timely book is a significant contribution to the existing literature. Drawing upon the important concepts of sexual terrorism and intersectionality, Prior and De Heer provide a crucial challenge to all institutions of higher learning— it is time for them to acknowledge the effects of their increasing corporatization on survivors of sexual violence and to instead become sites of greater civic responsibility, reform, and social justice. Campus Sexual Violence promises to have relevance across a wide variety of academic fields and disciplines. And, I believe that it will also have far-reaching impacts outside of the academy in the years to come."- Laura Gray-Rosendale, Professor, Northern Arizona UniversityTable of ContentsIntroductionChapter 1: Scope of the IssueChapter 2: Sexual Terrorism Chapter 3: Neoliberalism and Institutional BetrayalChapter 4: Ideology and PropagandaChapter 5: Amorality, Voluntary Socialized Compliance, and Perceptions of the PerpetratorChapter 6: Moving Forward

Taylor & Francis Ltd A Restorative Approach to Family Violence
Book SynopsisA Restorative Approach to Family Violence looks back at an early and successful demonstration of a family and culturally based model to stop severe family violence. This conferencing model, called family group decision making, was applied by three diverse Canadian communitiesInuit, rural, and urbanto the benefit of child and adult family members. Narrative inquiry identifies how engaging the family and relatives resets the narrative from misrecognition to recognition of their competence and caring. Family violence poses some of the most long-term and controversial questions in restorative justice. Should we use a restorative approach to stop gendered and intergenerational harm? Or will bringing together those who have been harmed, those causing harm, and their supporters only incite more violence? Underlying these questions is a profound distrust of families and their cultural networks. This distrust has stalled turning away from carceral interventions that particulaTrade Review"This important and beautifully written book narrates a history of brave innovation confronting family violence at its roots in Newfoundland and Labrador. It empowered First Peoples and First Nations to innovate in ways that allow us all to learn from their wisdom, and from histories of our colonial suppression of that wisdom. Evocative theoretical themes include feminist kin-making that moves patriarchal family structures from taking to tending. Joan Pennell draws upon deep wells of feminist activism in the shelter movement. She is an inspiring visionary, returning social work to its Hull House origins of doing with, away from doing for, from doing to."John Braithwaite, University of Maryland and Australian National University; Distinguished Professor Emeritus, School of Regulation and Global Governance (RegNet)"A Restorative Approach to Family Violence: Feminist Kin-making provides strong evidence for how, among other things, resetting externally imposed cultural narratives and re-centering the value of kinship ties are necessary steps towards addressing family violence. These steps may potentially change how child welfare systems engage with communities in which solutions can most effectively be found within their cultural roots."Kwesi Brookins, Professor of Psychology and Africana Studies, North Carolina State University; Director, Center for Family and Community Engagement"In this fantastic book, Professor Joan Pennell offers an exciting theoretical re-framing of the well-known Newfoundland and Labrador FGDM project led by Professor Gale Burford and her in the 1990s. The passage of time allows the author to reflect back and to add rich, multi-dimensional and state-of-the-art layers of theory to the program, which was ahead of its time when implemented. The book is a "Must read" for anyone working in the field of family violence, child protection and restorative justice: The "mother" of family group decision making re-organizes the building blocks of the project’s long-lasting success, and constructs a new framework that combines feminist, intergenerational, relational, cultural-sensitive and regulatory theories together. With this new framework, the strengths of the restorative justice approach become even more apparent; the development of new programs becomes more structured; and the evaluation of operating programs can be far more robust."Tali Gal, Head, School of Criminology, University of Haifa, Israel"In this valuable and timely book, Joan Pennell persuasively addresses one of the dilemmas confronting the modern development and application of restorative practices—family violence. Among RJ practitioners, the application of restorative values, principles, and practices to family violence has been thought to be very risky. It was feared that it might result in revictimization by those responsible due to power imbalances, subtle communication cues, and later retaliation. Based on an early demonstration project by Gale Burford and Joan, this book demonstrates that while careful preparation and coordination are necessary to decrease the odds of additional harm, Family Group Decision Making rooted in restorative practices may be uniquely suited to help families heal the harms, change attitudes and behaviors, and allow respectful relationships to be reestablished." Michael J. Gilbert, Professor Emeritus of Criminology & Criminal Justice, University of Texas at San Antonio; Executive Director, National Association of Community and Restorative Justice"This important book is written by one of the key developers of our practice and thinking around restorative approaches to family violence. It draws on both contemporary research and the author’s reflections on the trail-blazing use of restorative approaches in Canada in the 1990s. Characteristically, the book does not duck the challenges of family violence but is founded in a feminist kinship approach that carries hope and belief in families’ and communities’ abilities to address it, with the right support. The book also brings an important focus on the centrality of narratives to this work—the importance of questioning narratives which create stereotypes that disempower families and communities, and the revolutionary power of personal narratives as a means of grasping agency and making meaning from experience."Robin Sen, Lecturer, Social Work, University of Edinburgh, Scotland; Editor, Practice: Social Work in Action"Joan Pennell pioneered Family Group Conferencing. She has envisioned and evaluated countless innovations in family and child welfare. The book is about human connection. It interweaves the perspectives of kin-making, restorative principles, cultural world-views, feminism, movements harmful to families such as mass incarceration, masculinities, resilience, and trust. Within this context, Joan critiques and envisions new directions for nurturing troubled relationships. The reader comes away with a newfound respect for humble listening, faith in the power of people and families, and revitalized hope for a hybrid of allies." Mary P. Koss, Regent’s Professor of Public Health, Mel and Enid Zuckerman College of Public Health at the University of Arizona, USA"In reflecting on her thirty years of experience with Family Group Decision Making, the revolutionary approach to family violence that she helped to create in Canada and the U.S., Pennell demonstrates why this culturally- and family-based restorative justice process is uniquely suited to respond to the needs of families with a history of violence. Pennell brings her characteristic thoughtful analysis to the critical question of how to support anti-violence in families who have suffered ongoing colonial, racial, and economic injustice. This is a must-read for child welfare reformers, feminist anti-violence advocates, community organizers, restorative justice supporters – and all who are concerned with building a peaceful and just world."Professor Donna Coker, Dean's Distinguished Scholar, University of Miami School of Law, Florida, USAThis new book arrives at a time when calls for change have reached a crescendo with voices from families and professionals in agreement that our current adversarial responses are not serving families who experience violence well. Many families report experiences of harm when interacting with systems rooted in colonial and patriarchal values. A Restorative Approach to Family Violence: Feminist Kin-Making charts new paths that can help us move towards human and family-centered responses of care defined by feminist and relational approaches and the recognition that families can take steps to heal and that these steps impact this generation and those to come.Nancy Ross, PhD, RSW, Assistant Professor, School of Social Work, Dalhousie University, K’jipuktuk Halifax, Nova Scotia and Principle Investigator of a research project funded by Justice Canada titled Trauma and violence-informed and family-centered responses to intimate partner violence: Charting a new course for Nova ScotiaPennell’s book has the potential to speak to many different types of audiences, both social workers and other related professionals. In highlighting numerous concepts, historical narratives, and lessons learned, this book could be selected and engaged with among practitioners, students, researchers, educators, policymakers, and activists. Pennell holds together multiple narratives, themes, tensions, and hope throughout her writing as she encourages social workers to be more intentional and diligent in rethinking safety, families, violence, restorative justice, gender norms, feminist theories, and community engagement.Molly C.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Sexual Murder
Book SynopsisSexual Murder: Catathymic and Compulsive Homicides is the culmination of the author's 45 years of experience with, and studying, sexually motivated homicide. Sexual murders are generally of two types catathymic and compulsive. Catathymic homicides are caused by a breakthrough of underlying sexual conflicts. They can be unplanned, explosive (acute) attacks or planned murders stemming from a chronic obsession with, or disturbed attachment to, the victim. In compulsive homicides, a fusion of sex and aggression results in a powerful internal drive which pushes the offender to seek out victims to kill and the killing itself is sexually gratifying. These murders also may be planned or unplanned. In compulsive homicides that are unplanned, the urge breaks through and disrupts the offender's controls when a victim of opportunity crosses his path. The compulsive offender who plans his crimes often eludes law enforcement, and as a result he can have multiple (serial) victims over extended periTrade Review"Sexual Murder: Catathymic and Compulsive Homicides, is a brilliant integration and application of previous theory and research, and advances the field of criminal forensic psychology." —J.
