dc.description.notes | Post-war domestic violence studies have focused on the particular circumstances and accounts of violent ex-servicemen. However, it has been argued that war repercussions not only have an impact on the behaviour of veterans, but also on people who have never seen battle. This article explores the phenomenon of wife abuse perpetrated by civilian men in Australia in the aftermath of the First World War. At the turn of the nineteenth century, only white men of European descent, with specific height and weight measurements, could join the armed forces. Masculinity was equated with military service, and violence was one of the inherent features. At the same time, women had new occupational opportunities, less children and more independence. Men who did not meet the soldier criteria demonstrated their manhood through absolute control of their young wives, generating conflict within intimate relationships, which sometimes ended in homicide. | en |
