Resumen: |
La violencia doméstica, la violencia interpersonal, la violencia de pareja o la violencia de género siguen siendo un problema social que rara vez se comprende o discute en muchos sectores de la sociedad en todo el mundo. Lo mismo ocurre en el Caribe anglófono. La mayorÃa de las sociedades caribeñas son de naturaleza patriarcal, ya que la mayorÃa de los hombres gobiernan y crean el panorama polÃtico y económico donde viven los ciudadanos. Este volumen editado reúne a académicos de renombre que realizan investigaciones académicas rigurosas de diversas disciplinas (por ejemplo, ciencias polÃticas, derecho, lingüÃstica, criminologÃa, enfermerÃa, trabajo social y psicologÃa) para explicar claramente la definición conceptual de violencia doméstica dentro de la sociedad de la región de América Latina y el Caribe. -Contexto polÃtico. Destacará quiénes son los perpetradores y las vÃctimas de la violencia doméstica y las consecuencias de permitir que la violencia doméstica se perpetúe en la región. Este libro es único en el mercado actual, ya que es el único libro basado en el Caribe que proporciona una descripción integral de la violencia doméstica con respecto a su importancia, las vÃctimas, los perpetradores y las consecuencias. Ann Marie Bissessar es profesora de Ciencias PolÃticas en la Universidad de las Indias Occidentales, Campus de San AgustÃn, Trinidad y Tobago. Camille Huggins es profesora del Departamento de Trabajo Social de la Universidad de las Indias Occidentales, Campus de San AgustÃn, Trinidad y Tobago. |

Summary : |
Domestic violence, interpersonal violence, intimate partner violence, or gender-based violence continues to be a social problem that is rarely understood or discussed in many parts of society, worldwide. The same holds true in the Anglophone Caribbean. Most Caribbean societies are patriarchal in nature, as most men govern and create the political and economic landscape where citizens live. This edited volume brings together reputable scholars of rigorous academic research from various disciplines (e.g., political science, law, linguistics, criminology, nursing, social work and psychology) to clearly explain the conceptual definition of domestic violence within the Latin American and Caribbean region's socio-political context. It will highlight who are the perpetrators as well as the victims of domestic violence and the consequences of allowing domestic violence to perpetuate in the region. This book is unique in the market today, as it is the only book grounded in the Caribbeanproviding a comprehensive overview of domestic violence with regards to the significance, victims, perpetrators, and the consequences. Ann Marie Bissessar is Professor of Political Science at the University of the West Indies, St Augustine Campus, Trinidad and Tobago. Camille Huggins is Lecturer at the Social Work Department at the University of the West Indies, St Augustine Campus, Trinidad and Tobago. |
