  • What's Wrong with the Duluth Model? Bert H
    What's Wrong with the Duluth Model? Bert H. Hoff Batterer treatment programs around the world are adopting the "Duluth model," perhaps the most widespread of the male-patriarchy batterers' programs, with trainings in hundreds of cities across the country and a recent series of Marine Corps contracts. It promotes a gender- polarizing view that battering is a conscious strategy by men to assert male dominance over women. What is the Duluth Model? It was created by the Duluth, Minnesota Domestic Abuse Intervention Project. It's described in detail in Pence, E., and Paymer, M. Education Groups For Men Who Batter: The Duluth Model. The "Power and Control Wheel," central to the model, "depicts the primary abusive behaviors experienced by women living with men who batter." [emphasis added] There's no doubt that it reflects a feminist ideology of male oppression of women. What's wrong with it? Here's what experts have to say: • It's about blaming and shaming men, more than giving them the insights and support to help them stop their abusive behavior. The Duluth Model preaches that men who batter don't have a personal problem, but are simply reflecting "a culture that teaches men to dominate." John Everingham, co-author of Men Healing Shame and a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago, calls this "shame of male for being male." But shaming is a cause of rage, not a cure for it. Is wife-beating an accepted cultural norm? Think about it: do you know any man who thinks that beating your wife is "normal" or "OK"? Psychologist Donald G.

  • Personal Histories of the Second Wave of Feminism
    Personal Histories of the Second Wave of Feminism summarised from interviews by Viv Honeybourne and Ilona Singer Volumes One and Two 1 Feminist Archive Oral History Project Foreword by the Oral History Project Workers Ilona Singer and Viv Honeybourne The Oral History Project has been a fantastic opportunity to explore feminist activism from the 1970's onwards from the unique perspectives of women who were involved. We each conducted ten in depth qualitative interviews which were recorded (the minidisks will be kept at the archive as vital pieces of history themselves) and written up as an oral history. We used the open-ended questions (listed as an appendix), so as to let the women speak for themselves and not to pre-suppose any particular type of answer. We tried to involve our interviewees as much as possible in every stage of the research process. Many interviewees chose to review and amend the final write-ups and we were happy to let them do this so that they could have control over how they wished to be represented. The use of a snowball sampling method and the fact that our interviewees were willing volunteers means that these histories (herstories) are not meant to be representative in a strictly scientific sense. Some women were more publicly active in the period than others, but all our of interviewees had important stories to tell and vital reflections on the period. The oral histories have been included in alphabetical order. They are of differing lengths because some women spoke for longer than others and we felt that to strive excessively to limit their words would be imposing an artificial limit on their account of their own lives .

  • Intimate Partner Violence—Is There a Solution?
    Mujal Macro Edit_Paginated (Do Not Delete) 7/8/2012 2:24 PM Intimate Partner Violence—Is There A Solution? BY DIKSHA MUNJAL* I. INTRODUCTION The problem of violence against women is universal. It cuts through all boundaries of nationality, race, class, color, and creed. Manifestations of the problem can be found in the historical traditions of many countries such as China, where the practice of foot-binding took place,1 and India, where the ritual of sati was followed.2 The menace is with us still today.3 According to the latest British Crime Survey on intimate violence, “overall, three in ten (30%) women and two in ten (20%) men had experienced any domestic abuse since the age of 16.”4 * Research Associate, National Law University Delhi, New Delhi. L.L.M., University College London. Special thanks to Professor M.D.A. Freeman for his comments on an earlier draft. I would also like to thank my parents, Mr. Rakesh Munjal and Mrs. Shabnam Munjal, and my sister, Ms.Yashita Munjal, for their unwavering support. 1. Rhea V.

NARRATING THE MOVEMENT: A RHETORICAL ANALYSIS ON THE DIGITAL MOBILIZATION, REMIX, AND HIJACK OF #METOO ROCKY ROQUE 129 Pages The Me Too movement garnered digital disclosures after Alyssa Milano’s initial tweet in October 2017. Over the period of two years, different remixes of #MeToo surfaced which led to the subsequent hijack of the hashtag. Furthermore, Boyle (2019) argued that the movement can be studied as a “moment” or a “discourse.” Scholars have examined Me Too as a moment, or a singular occurrence that emerged due to mainstream popularity. However, this analysis will study the movement as a discourse, to reveal the intricate interactions present with each remixed hashtag. Through Fisher’s narrative paradigm, an in-depth analysis was conducted to examine how Twitter disclosures contain narrative coherence and fidelity.

  • Riding the Donkey Backwards: Men As the Unacceptable Victims of Marital Violence
    The Journal of Men's Studies, Volume 3, Number 2, November 1994, p. 137-159 Riding the Donkey Backwards: Men as the Unacceptable Victims of Marital Violence MALCOLM J. GEORGE Department of Physiology Queen Mary and Westfield College London, United Kingdom In post-Renaissance France and England, society ridiculed and humiliated husbands thought to be battered and/or dominated by their wives (Steinmetz, 1977-78). In France, for instance, a "battered" husband was trotted around town riding a donkey backwards while holding its tail. In England, "abused" husbands were strapped to a cart and paraded around town, all the while subjected to the people's derision and contempt. Such "treatments" for these husbands arose out of the patriarchal ethos where a husband was expected to dominate his wife, making her, if the occasion arose, the proper target for necessary marital chastisement; not the other way around (Dobash & Dobash, 1979). Although the patriarchal view supporting a husband's complete dominance of his wife persisted into the twentieth century (E. Pleck, 1987), during the latter half of this century, we find a definite shift in people's attitudes toward marital relationships. Beginning in the 1970s, for instance, advocates like Del Martin (1976) and Erin Pizzey (Pizzey 1974; Pizzey & Shapiro, 1982) exposed the "hidden" secret of domestic violence. As a result, terms like "domestic violence," "domestic abuse," and "battered wife" have found their way into our everyday speech. Finally, society seems to be taking the issue of domestic violence against women seriously and looking for solutions to stem if not to end the violence.
