Book Description

January 1, 2000
In a responsible yet impassioned tone, this book confronts the subject of familial violence. By inviting introspection, it presents an excellent opportunity for reflection and changing patterns of behavior that do not benefit either personal relationships or social behavior. Discussions of types of violence, causes of familial violence, guides to understanding the relationship between masculinity and violence, and suggested solutions are included. Each chapter concludes with a survey that assists the reader's personal work.

Una invitación a la introspección, presenta una excelente oportunidad para reflexionar y cambiar patrones de conducta que no benefician las relaciones personales ni su comportamiento en la sociedad. Incluye discusiones de tipos de violencia, causas de la violencia intrafamiliar, consejos para entender la relación entre masculinidad y violencia, y sugerencias de soluciones. Al final de cada capítulo hay un cuestionario que le servirá al lector de guía para su trabajo personal.


Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

After several years working in San Francisco's ManAlive project, a workshop to help Latino men cope with their own violence, Ram¡rez Hern ndez has created a model to address issues common to all Latino cultures. Weaving information about specific Latin influences, attitudes, and perspectives throughout, the author covers the basic definitions and types of violence, the causes and evolution of family violence, the change process, and ways to develop a new identity and build different family relationships. Each chapter includes excerpts from interviews with Latino men talking about their personal experiences and a series of questions and exercises to help men discuss and clarify issues with their partners. Also, a self-assessment questionnaire helps men face what is a difficult admission. Ram¡rez Hern ndez's easy-to-read style and supportive, nonjudgmental tone help readers understand the personal and cultural roots of violence, all the while fostering a stronger, more caring, and redefined masculine role for Latino men. This treatment is less academic than Clo‚ Madanes's Violencia Masculina (Male Violence, Granica, 1997), which is oriented toward professionals. Highly recommended for public and academic libraries.

This review is from: Violencia Masculina en el Hogar (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
Es un buen intento de tratar el tema de los hombres que ejercen violencia, se pierde mucho en el anecdotario, y hay menos teoría, y sistematización de la experiencia de lo que hubiera deseado. Sí hay mucha información sobre casos de hombres maltratadores. Está muy bien enfocdo desde el enfoque de género y violencia familiar.
