Many people consider Canada, particularly in comparison to its southern cousin, as a "peaceable kingdom." However, as the historical record demonstrates, Canadians have never been a thoroughly non-violent people. Violence in Canada highlights from an interdisciplinary perspective the major areas and contexts where violence takes place.Consisting of thirteen contributions, the book forms an indispensable guide to the subject. All of the authors are experts in their field, many with international reputations, and are drawn from the fields of sociology, political science, history, and criminology. The foreword by Ted Robert Gurr, author of Violence in America, is followed by an historical analysis of violence on the Canadian western frontier. Other scholars describe contemporary violence: by and against indigenous peoples, women, children, and the elderly; in labor-related disputes; homicide; police and prison violence; terrorism; and discuss government responses and policy implications. Each chapter specifically addresses the sociological and political dimensions of violence. The authors make ample use of statistics and empirical research. Jeffrey Ian Ross's introduction outlines the sociopolitical dynamics of violence, and his summary chapter offers directions for future research. When the book was first published in 1995 it was widely praised by scholarly journals and has since become a standard text in the study of violence and modern Canadian cultural studies.The book is all the more valuable as its new introduction places its findings in the context of research that has been produced since the original publication. Violence in Canada will be of interest to sociologists, criminologists, and political scientists.Jeffrey Ian Ross is an associate professor in the Division of Criminology, Criminal Justice and Social Policy and fellow with the Center for Comparative and International Law, University of Baltimore. His work has appeared in many academic journals and chapters in academic texts, as well as articles in popular magazines in Canada and the United States. He is the author, co-author, editor, or co-editor of eight books.Ted Robert Gurr is Distinguished University Professor at the University of Maryland. Among his books are Why Men Rebel and Violence in America.

Annotated Inventory of Research Reports Completed Through the Five Research Centres on Family Violence and Violence Against Women and Children by Teresa Lukawiecki,Nadia Ross,Canada. Health Canada,Canada. Family Violence Prevention Unit Pdf
Health Canada and the Social Sciences & Humanities Research Council established a network of five family violence and violence against women research centres. These centres promote collaboration among academics and community workers to develop strategies for change that are community-centred and based on solid research. This report is an annotated bibliography of the research reports produced through the five research centres prior to fall 1997. Citations are arranged in alphabetical order by author or editor within three sections covering the following topics: women abuse or violence against women; child abuse and neglect; and family violence. The annotations include information on the main ideas, purpose of research, methodology used, audience, major findings, recommendations, and implications. A directory of the five research centres along with descriptions of their activities is appended.
In 1994 a group of researchers and decision makers met to discuss the state of child welfare. Also present were a few practitioners and two youth in care. Six years later, when they met again, the number of practitioners and youth had grown considerably and were joined by a strong contingent of foster parents. Thus the findings and insights presented were affirmed or challenged by those most affected -- those on the front line. It was an exciting event, worth capturing in book form. Kathleen Kufeldt and Brad McKenzie have gathered the papers presented at the 2000 Symposium and have organised them under four themes: incidence and characteristics of child maltreatment; the continuum of care; policy and practice; and future directions. An analysis and synthesis of the work informs each of these themes, while an eight-point research agenda developed in an earlier symposium is used to assess developments to date and provide guidance for the future.

Child Abuse and Neglect by Andy Wachtel,Canada. National Policy Circle on Child Abuse Pdf
This paper assesses the current direction of child abuse and neglect policy in Canada. The first part of the report defines physical abuse, neglect, and other categories of child abuse. It catalogues how, during the current period of interest in this issue, physical abuse gained the limelight, and neglect was pushed somewhat into the shadows. The second part of the paper is a brief overview of 20 typically related projects funded by the Family Violence Prevention Division. Appendix I contains abstracts of the topic-related aspects of each of the reports.
