Mann details a community effort to establish a shelter for abused women in a small Ontario municipality. While other literature presents the ostensibly cohesive views of particular interest groups on the issue of domestic violence, Mann exposes the conflicts that actually occur, and the ways these conflicts fuel unintended outcomes. In "Who Owns Domestic Abuse? The Local Politics of a Social Problem," the author ventures bravely into the politically charged debate over the definition of abuse, and emphasizes the fact that 'owning' a problem does not ensure the possession of viable answers. Rather than promoting a particular response to such problems, Mann uses personal accounts of abuse to make a space for the diverse perspectives of abused women and abusive men. She urges activists and intervenors to argue less and listen more.Women's sheltersPolitical aspectsOntarioCase studiesFamily violenceGovernment policyOntarioCase studiesWomenAbuse ofOntarioCase studiesElectronic books.Women's sheltersPolitical aspectsFamily violenceGovernment policyWomenAbuse of305.420971Mann Ruth M(Ruth Marie),1947-1035612MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456179103321Who owns domestic abuse2455403UNINA02933nam 2200637 a 450 991045708980332120191030193359.01-283-33792-497866133379240-335-23802-5(CKB)2550000000006669(EBL)480637(OCoLC)609854949(SSID)ssj0000366414(PQKBManifestationID)11279178(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000366414(PQKBWorkID)10418291(PQKB)10152255(MiAaPQ)EBC480637(Au-PeEL)EBL480637(CaPaEBR)ebr10438173(CaONFJC)MIL333792(EXLCZ)99255000000000666920110114d2009 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrSupporting language and literacy development in the early years[electronic resource] /Marian Whitehead2nd Ed.Maidenhead, England Open University Press20091 online resource (202 p.)Supporting early learningPrevious ed.: 1999.0-335-23802-5 0-335-23427-5 Includes bibliographic references and index.Front cover; Half title; Series editors; Title page; Copyright page; Dedication; Contents; Series editors' preface; Acknowledgements; Introduction; Chapter 1 Great communicators; Chapter 2 Play and language; Chapter 3 Once upon a time ...; Chapter 4 Emerging literacy; Chapter 5 Language, literature and literacy in early years settings: case studies; Chapter 6 National requirements for language and literacy in the early years; Chapter 7 Communicating and talking together; Appendix I The Bears' Treasure Island; Appendix II Hampden Way Nursery School documentsAppendix III 'The Five Year Old Steiner Waldorf Child' statementAppendix IV Earlham Early Years Centre documents; Bibliography; Useful websites; Index; Back coverGives guidance to early years practitioners on how to support young children's language and literacy development.
