Family Violence in Canada by Canadian Centre for Justice Statistics Pdf

This report presents the results of a number of activities and projects undertaken by Statistics Canada to identify the nature and extent of violence in Canadian families. For the first time in Canada, detailed information about the prevalence and the circumstances of many forms of violence in the family are available at a national level. Under the renewed Family Violence Initiative announced by the federal government in February 1991, Health Canada requested the assistance of the Canadian Centre for Justice Statistics (CCJS) in developing and co-ordinating a number of data collection activities. The overall objective of these activities was to address the need for improved information about family violence and services for victims and offenders. The overall strategy for the collection and analysis of national family violence information was composed of seven activities, the results of which are included in this report. Activities included: a national household survey on violence against women, a national survey of transition homes, a survey to examine cases of child abuse reported to pediatric hospitals, an inventory of residential services for abused women, an inventory of programs for men who batter, a descriptive study of legislation and services provided by provincial child welfare systems, and a project to improve the capacity of provincial information systems to provide criminal justice statistics in this area. This report also includes statistical information about cases of family violence reported to the police, domestic homicides, as well as a descriptive "case study" of the Winnipeg Family Violence Court. The definition of "family violence" that has guided the work of Statistics Canada and used throughout this report was developed under the Federal Family Violence Initiative and includes abuse of children, youth and older persons, and women by their male partners. Abuse can take a number of forms, including physical and sexual assault, intimidation, mental or emotional abuse, neglect, deprivation and financial exploitation. The term "family" refers to a grouping of individuals who are related by affection, kinship, dependency or trust. By using specific criteria and research tools to define and measure family violence, this report shows that violence in the family is a serious social and criminal problem in Canada.

Angry White Men by Michael Kimmel Pdf

"[W]e can't come off as a bunch of angry white men.” Robert Bennett, chairman of the Ohio Republican Party One of the enduring legacies of the 2012 Presidential campaign was the demise of the white American male voter as a dominant force in the political landscape. On election night, after Obama was announced the winner, a distressed Bill O'Reilly lamented that he didn't live in “a traditional America anymore.” He was joined by others who bellowed their grief on the talk radio airwaves, the traditional redoubt of angry white men. Why were they so angry? Sociologist Michael Kimmel, one of the leading writers on men and masculinity in the world today, has spent hundreds of hours in the company of America's angry white men – from white supremacists to men's rights activists to young students –in pursuit of an answer. Angry White Men presents a comprehensive diagnosis of their fears, anxieties, and rage. Kimmel locates this increase in anger in the seismic economic, social and political shifts that have so transformed the American landscape. Downward mobility, increased racial and gender equality, and a tenacious clinging to an anachronistic ideology of masculinity has left many men feeling betrayed and bewildered. Raised to expect unparalleled social and economic privilege, white men are suffering today from what Kimmel calls "aggrieved entitlement": a sense that those benefits that white men believed were their due have been snatched away from them. Angry White Men discusses, among others, the sons of small town America, scarred by underemployment and wage stagnation. When America's white men feel they've lived their lives the ‘right' way – worked hard and stayed out of trouble – and still do not get economic rewards, then they have to blame somebody else. Even more terrifying is the phenomenon of angry young boys. School shootings in the United States are not just the work of “misguided youth” or “troubled teens”—they're all committed by boys. These alienated young men are transformed into mass murderers by a sense that using violence against others is their right. The future of America is more inclusive and diverse. The choice for angry white men is not whether or not they can stem the tide of history: they cannot. Their choice is whether or not they will be dragged kicking and screaming into that inevitable future, or whether they will walk openly and honorably – far happier and healthier incidentally – alongside those they've spent so long trying to exclude.

Family Violence by Harvey Wallace,Cliff Roberson,Julie L. Globokar Pdf

Family Violence: Legal, Medical, and Social Perspectives examines the entire spectrum of family violence, focusing on social processes and social relationships. The Ninth Edition of Family Violence is a comprehensive updated version of the classic text on family violence. In addition to the updates to each chapter, the new edition features new research, comments, and discussions on the #MeToo Movement, same gender couples, elder abuse, stalking, partner abuse, and law enforcement’s updated responses to these incidents. The new edition, however, still retains the coverage of the seminal research studies that are the bases of popular theories on partner and family violence. In the new edition, the authors have sought to make the material more understandable to the readers so that instructors will not need to waste valuable class time explaining the text.
