Pratiques et recherches féministes en matière de violence conjugale
Dans une perspective interdisciplinaire et intersectorielle, les autrices et les auteurs de cet ouvrage font état de différentes recherches et pratiques féministes en matière de violence envers les femmes. L’ouvrage propose des pistes à la fois critiques et concrètes afin de renouveler les cadres d’analyse, d’évaluation et d’intervention en tenant compte de la pluralité des expériences des femmes victimes et des contextes dans lesquels les violences à leur encontre se produisent.
Gangs and Girls
Gangs and Girls is the first major piece of qualitative research specifically aimed at understanding and analyzing the involvement of street gangs in female juvenile prostitution. Organized around a number of direct central questions, Michel Dorais and Patrice Corriveau document how street gangs control the lucrative trade in underage girls. They discuss how young men are drawn to gang life, how young girls become attracted and attached to the gang members who eventually sell them into prostitution, and why it is so hard to infiltrate and dismantle the distinct but interrelated worlds of the procurer, victim, and client. Rooted firmly in first person testimony, this research deepens our understanding of juvenile prostitution by identifying and exploring the types of motivations and circumstances that lead teenagers into prostitution rings. The ultimate focus is on prevention: the authors provide essential tools for parents and those trying to help adolescents in peril, support and intervention strategies for practitioners, and the tools and information necessary for policy makers to reflect on and design innovative social policy.
Violences envers les femmes
La violence envers les femmes est la forme d’atteinte aux droits fondamentaux la plus envahissante dans le monde aujourd’hui, sachant que le pourcentage de femmes subissant de la violence physique ou sexuelle peut s’élever jusqu’à 70 % dans certains pays. En effet, la violence envers les femmes prend plusieurs formes – violence conjugale, agression sexuelle, traite des femmes, crimes d’honneur, violences en temps de guerre – et plusieurs visages – immigrantes, autochtones, handicapées, lesbiennes. Les besoins des femmes victimes de violence sont ainsi multiples, et les personnes qui œuvrent auprès d’elles doivent relever des défis de plus en plus nombreux pour arriver...
Young People, Stalking Awareness and Domestic Abuse
This book addresses domestic abuse and stalking among young people in the UK and Ireland, with a focus on intersectionality and lifestyle settings. In partnership with the Alice Ruggles Trust, this book draws on a wealth of expert contributions including those with lived experience, frontline services such as Paladin National Stalking Advocacy Service, charities EmilyTest and Hollie Gazzard Trust, researchers of so-called honour-based abuse and online harms, and forensic psychologists who work with people who stalk. It begins with an overview of ways to recognise harmful behaviours, including those carried out online. The discussion then moves on to methods and motivations of stalking and co...
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency

Out To Defend Ourselves
This first critical history of a street gang in a Canadian city is a result of a four-year collaboration between a university professor (Ted Rutland) and the leader of les Bélangers (Maxime Aurélien). Out to Defend Ourselves tells the story of Montreal’s first Haitian street gang, les Bélangers. It traces how the gang emerged from a group of Haitian friends, the children of migrants from Haiti in the 1970s. It documents the forms of racial violence they experienced and their battles against them. It also documents the everyday lives of the gang members, the petty crime some members engaged in to make ends meet, and how the police actions against the gang changed its nature and function – making it, finally, a more criminally oriented and violent formation. It is a story about a gang, but it is also a story of young Haitians making their lives in 1970s and 80s Montreal and a story about Montreal in a period of great change.
