Description

This book is an interdisciplinary look at historical and contemporary responses to violence against women. The authors also explore Crenshaw's three forms of intersectionality in the context of violence against minoritized women to capture patterns of advantage and disadvantage. They argue that this social problem cannot be fully understood without encompassing such integration.
