Items related to Violence against Women (Understanding Social Problems:...
Research and advocacy aimed at understanding and ending violence against women had its beginning in the early 1970s, emerging as a central concern of the feminist movement. This work has expanded exponentially over the past three decades to influence practice and policy at the local, state, and federal levels. Many of the most influential articles in the field were published in Social Problems. This volume assembles twelve of these articles into a core text that covers such topics as wife abuse, sexual assault, sexual harassment, and stalking as well as institutional response to violence against women.

Violence Against Women is a rich collection of articles that covers a variety of themes related to the history, major issues, theories, and methods of this area of study ... demonstrating the creativity and ingenuity that is necessary to present a complete and comprehensive view of this problem ... Professors looking for a text on violence and women should give this volume serious consideration. (Karen Callaghan, Barry University Teaching Sociology)
