James Ptacek, "Feeling Trapped: Social Class and Violence against Women (Volume 9) "
English | ISBN: 0520381610 | 2023 | 240 pages | PDF | 2 MB
The relationship between class and intimate violence against women is much misunderstood. While many studies of intimate violence focus on poor and working-class women, few examine the issue comparatively in terms of class privilege and class disadvantage. James Ptacek draws on in-depth interviews with sixty women from wealthy, professional, working-class, and poor communities to investigate how social class shapes both women's experiences of violence and the responses of their communities to this violence.
