    UNDERSTANDING THE COMPLEXITIES OF FEMINIST PERSPECTIVES ON WOMAN ABUSE: A COMMENTARY ON DONALD G. DUTTON’S RETHINKING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE* Walter S. DeKeseredy, Ph.D. Criminology, Justice and Policy Studies University of Ontario Institute of Technology Oshawa, Ontario Canada L1H 7K4 [email protected] Molly Dragiewicz, Ph.D. Criminology, Justice and Policy Studies University of Ontario Institute of Technology Oshawa, Ontario Canada L1H 7K4 [email protected] *The authors would like to thank Edward G. Gondolf and Claire Renzetti for their helpful comments and criticisms. Please send all correspondence to Walter DeKeseredy, e-mail: [email protected]. UNDERSTANDING THE COMPLEXITIES OF FEMINIST PERSPECTIVES ON WOMAN ABUSE: A COMMENTARY ON DONALD G. DUTTON’S RETHINKING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE All books, including Donald G. Dutton’s (2006) Rethinking Domestic Violence, are written and published in a specific political and economic context. As vividly described by Faludi (1991), Hammer (2002), and many others who made progressive contributions to an interdisciplinary understanding of the enduring discrimination against contemporary North American women, we still live in a climate characterized by vitriolic attacks on feminist scholarship, practice, and activism, intended to secure women’s basic human rights (DeKeseredy & Schwartz, 2003; Stanko, 2006). Despite its title, Dutton’s new book doesn’t focus on rethinking domestic violence. Instead, it is another example of the conservative backlash against feminism in general and feminist research on woman abuse in particular, a response that “helps to veil the extent and brutality of this problem and to block efforts to deal with it” (Hammer, 2002, p. 5). Dutton’s preoccupation with feminism is reflected in entire chapters dedicated to criticizing feminist theory and research, and the book’s “Bottom Line” summary, where half of the main points concern Dutton’s interpretation of feminism rather than new insights about domestic violence research.

  • From Internalizing to Externalizing: Theoretical Models of the Processes Linking Ptsd to Juvenile Delinquency
    In: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder ISBN 978-1-61668-526-3 Editor: Sylvia J. Egan, pp. © 2010 Nova Science Publishers, Inc. Chapter 2 FROM INTERNALIZING TO EXTERNALIZING: THEORETICAL MODELS OF THE PROCESSES LINKING PTSD TO JUVENILE DELINQUENCY Patricia K. Kerig1 and Stephen P. Becker2 1University of Utah, USA 2Miami University, Ohio, USA ABSTRACT In recent years, increasing attention has been drawn to a population previously overlooked in studies of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and that is youth involved with the juvenile justice system. Although prevalence rates vary, recent studies reveal that as many as 32% of boys and 52% of girls in detention settings meet DSM-IV criteria for a diagnosis of PTSD (see Kerig & Becker, in press, for a review). However, given that this area of research is relatively new, few studies to date have gone beyond the documentation of prevalence rates to examine the underlying processes that might account for the link between trauma and severe forms of antisocial behavior. The present chapter describes the prevailing theoretical models of the developmental psychopathology of trauma and delinquency and reviews the existing empirical evidence in support of their suppositions. Models discussed include those focusing on emotion processing (e.g., affect dysregulation, emotional numbing, emotion recognition deficits); cognitive processes (e.g., hostile attributions, stigma, alienation); interpersonal processes (e.g., traumatic bonding, antisocial peers); as well as integrative models, including attachment theory and the trauma coping model. 2 Patricia K. Kerig and Stephen P. Becker TRAUMA EXPOSURE, PTSD, AND DELINQUENCY A large body of literature attests to the fact that youth in detention settings have been exposed to significant levels of trauma.

  • Understanding Relational Dysfunction In
    Psychology Research, August 2019, Vol. 9, No.8, 303-318 doi:10.17265/2159-5542/2019.08.001 D DAVID PUBLISHING Understanding Relational Dysfunction in Borderline, Narcissistic, and Antisocial Personality Disorders: Clinical Considerations, Presentation of Three Case Studies, and Implications for Therapeutic Intervention Genziana Lay Private Psychotherapy Practice, Sassari, Italy Personality disorders are a class of mental disorders involving enduring maladaptive patterns of behaving, thinking, and feeling which profoundly affect functioning, inner experience, and relationships. This work focuses on three Cluster B personality disorders (PDs) (Borderline, Narcissistic, and Antisocial PDs), specifically illustrating how relational dysfunction manifests in each condition. People with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) experience pervasive instability in mood, behavior, self-image, and interpersonal patterns. In relationships, they tend to alternate between extremes of over-idealization and devaluation. Intense fear of abandonment, fluctuating affect, inappropriate anger, and black/white thinking deeply influence how they navigate personal relationships, which are often unstable, chaotic, dramatic, and ultimately destructive. They have a fundamental incapacity to self-soothe the explosive emotional states they experience as they oscillate between fears of engulfment and abandonment. This leads to unpredictable, harmful, impulsive behavior and chronic feelings of insecurity, worthlessness, shame, and emptiness. Their relationships are explosive, marked by hostility/contempt for self and partner alternating with bottomless neediness. Manipulation, lying, blaming, raging, and “push-pull” patterns are common features. Individuals with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) exhibit a long-standing pattern of grandiosity and lack of empathy. They have an exaggerated sense of self-importance, are self-absorbed, feel entitled, and tend to seek attention. Scarcely concerned with others’ feelings, they can be both charming and exploitative.

  • Power and Control Wheel NO SHADING
    POOWERWER AANDND COONTROLNTROL WHHEELEEL hysical and sexual assaults, or threats to commit them, are the most apparent forms of domestic violence and are usually Pthe actions that allow others to become aware of the problem. However, regular use of other abusive behaviors by the batterer, when reinforced by one or more acts of physical violence, make up a larger system of abuse. Although physical as- saults may occur only once or occasionally, they instill threat of future violent attacks and allow the abuser to take control of the woman’s life and circumstances. he Power & Control diagram is a particularly helpful tool in understanding the overall pattern of abusive and violent be- Thaviors, which are used by a batterer to establish and maintain control over his partner. Very often, one or more violent incidents are accompanied by an array of these other types of abuse. They are less easily identified, yet firmly establish a pat- tern of intimidation and control in the relationship.

  • Black Widows: Battered Mothers Who Kill
    Black Widows: Battered Mothers Who Kill Jay Berta Klyman Submitted under the supervision of Rebecca Shlafer-Nealy to the University Honors Program at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science magna cum laude in Authentic Community Engagement. May 12, 2016 Summary The following paper examines battered mothers who kill their abusers. Through estimation, we find that this population is made up of 16,000 women who are presently incarcerated in the United States. Research examines the cases of Artiesha Love and Natalie Pollard, two mothers in the St. Paul/Minneapolis area who allegedly murdered their abusers. Through media analysis of over 15 sources, it is clear that the media lacks an understanding of domestic violence in the cases of battered mothers who kill. Turning to existing research, it is clear that very little research has been done around the role of motherhood. Of the literature examined, no previous research has done to make sense of how motherhood might affect a woman’s decision to kill or not kill her abuser. There is hope when it comes to case studies such as the Sin by Silence bills and documentary in California, and the #SayHerName component of the #BlackLivesMatter movement. The issue of battered mothers who kill their abusers intersects with police brutality, racial disparities, and the criminalization of people of color and the movement to end domestic violence. Introduction Our cultural narrative in the United States around domestic violence brings to mind a woman and her children, bruised and bloodied sitting in a battered women’s shelter.
