Conceptualising Male Violence against Female Partners: Political Implications of Therapeutic Responses

Abstract

This paper examines some political implications of particular therapeutic/non‐legal responses to male violence against female partners. In particular, a critique of the conceptualisation of violence as a problem of conflict is made. It is emphasised that male violence is a crime and that divergent responses are at risk of losing political impact and may well result in further oppression of women.
