| dc.description.notes | Janice Ristock is a Canadian academic renowned for her groundbreaking research exploring the dynamics of abuse in lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, two-spirit and queer (LGBTQ) relationships. In Intimate partner violence in LGBTQ lives:, she brings together the perspectives of practitioners, academics and activists from Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and United States to produce an accessible and cutting edge collection of writing. The book is aimed not just at specialists but anyone interested in expanding their knowledge of current challenges in the field.<br/ ><br/ >Intimate partner violence in LGBTQ lives:identifies some of the key ideological and practical difficulties in using traditional domestic violence frameworks to analyse abuse in LGBTQ relationships. It covers themes as diverse as social constructions of violence in the context of gay relationships, discourses on lesbian violence and healthy relationships, the tensions of perpetration and victimisation in trans relationships and the dynamics of relationship abuse for sexual minority men living with HIV.<br/ ><br/ >Ristock divides the collection into three sections: ‘framings’, ‘LGBTQ lives’ and ‘ethical challenges’. All three explore the myriad ways in which the dominant heterosexual narrative of relationship violence excludes the experiences and the stories of the ‘other’.<br/ ><br/ >The book does not shy away from the complexity that the authors present, nor does it seek to offer all the answers. Instead, Ristock offers the reader a series of previously unpublished snapshots of innovative emerging practice. Intimate partner violence in LGBTQ live:is an important contribution in a challenging field. | en |
