Honor, Abjection, and the Politics of Gendered Violence
The protection of male honor through gendered violence is generally considered relevant only to Eastern cultures where patriarchal relations are more visible. This article draws on Bourdieu's writings to explore how concealed forms of male-coded honor and female abjection similarly shape gendered violence in contemporary neoliberal Western contexts. The article also examines the role of female-coded honor in women's responses to violence, demonst…
Gender and Sexuality in Childhood Emotional Abuse
This article reports on a research project that aimed to generate new knowledge about the social dimensions of childhood emotional abuse. The driving research question for the overarching study asked how social context shapes and structures childhood emotional abuse, with the two sub-questions specifically relevant to this paper asking how the severity of childhood emotional abuse might vary according to the gender and sexual identity of victim-s…

What do young women want? Using a qualitative survey to explore the potential for feminist-informed mental health peer support
Intersecting gender and other social inequalities are pertinent to women’s mental health across the life course. Gendered violence and other forms of gender inequality in particular play a key role in the higher burden of psychological distress carried by young women. However, the context of gendered violence is often minimised or overlooked entirely when young women seek help or advice around mental health concerns. This is especially the case f…
The Long Shadow of Intimate Partner Violence
Ongoing health issues influence the postseparation lives of survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV). This study identified associations between health following IPV and demographic, housing, employment, and social participation factors. Survivors of IPV in Australia were surveyed. Logistic regression assessed factors of interest with physical and mental health conditions. Six hundred and fifty-eight women participated. Physical health issues…
Social Participation After Intimate Partner Violence
This large mixed methods study adopted a citizenship lens to examine the impact of intimate partner violence (IPV) on women's social participation. The study found that social participation in all categories contracted dramatically during IPV and, in most cases, never regained pre-violence levels. The study also found that following initial social withdrawal, many women went on to reengage in new ways, including through political activism on gend…
What Helps Young People in Australia Create Healthy Relationships After Growing up in Domestic Violence
Purpose This study aimed to discover what enables young people in Australia to create healthy relationships despite exposure to domestic violence (DV) in their families of origin during their formative years. Method Taking an ecological systems theory and mixed qualitative methods approach, a survey was designed to identify different factors that young people recalled as helpful when they were enduring DV as children and, later, as young adults. …
Saving Australian Social Work
In 2020, the Australian Government proposed a new model of higher education funding that purported to incentivise study in national priority areas. However, despite shortages of social workers, the initial proposal doubled the student fee contribution for a social work degree. The Save Social Work Australia campaign was established by the Australian Council of Heads of Schools of Social Work to redress errant assumptions underpinning the funding …
Mothering during domestic abuse
Background If women’s use of agency to protect their children from domestic abuse is considered at all, it is usually in terms of women staying or leaving abusive partners. Elsewhere women’s mothering, when they are enduring domestic abuse, is viewed from a perspective that focuses on finding deficits by observation and categorising the relationship between them and their children. Objective The study, which informs this article, looked to the li…

Educating Social Workers in the Midst of Covid-19
Social work education in Australia in the midst of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) would not have been possible under our pre-pandemic accreditation standards due to assumptions about best practice in higher education that were not possible to enact during the pandemic. Rather than immediately arguing for a new set of standards, as Heads of Social Work programmes the authors of this paper promoted a principles-led approach to inform ‘the rig…
Devi Mangiare!” [You have to eat!]
In this article, the researchers report findings on how food meanings, culture and gender intersect in the experiences of Italian-Australian women. In-depth narrative interviews were thematically analyzed using a feminist social constructionist framework informed by anthropological theories about "foodways" and culture. Three core themes were identified in the women's narratives: " il cibo e' tutto, il cibo e amore " - "food is everything, food i…
Rethinking Women’s Mental Health After Intimate Partner Violence
This article reports on mixed methods research into intimate partner violence (IPV) and women's mental health. Using an online national survey and life history interviews, quantitative and qualitative data analysis demonstrates how IPV negatively impacts women's sense of self, with other multiple losses in relation to income, work, housing, and social participation further undermining recovery into the long term. The feminist concept of sexual po…
Damned If You Do, Damned If You Don’t
Childhood emotional abuse (CEA) is the least researched but most common and psychologically harmful form of child abuse. While there is a robust body of feminist research into the gendered discourses framing child sexual abuse, domestic violence, and rape and sexual assault, there has been little feminist examination of CEA. This article reports on the findings from two interview studies with women who have backgrounds of CEA exploring how this f…
Becoming a Better Man”
Childhood emotional abuse (CEA) is the most common and psychologically harmful form of child abuse. While there has been attention to how gender discourses and power relations frame other forms of interpersonal violence and abuse, there has been no research into the gendered dimensions of CEA. This article reports on the findings from a qualitative interview study with men who have these backgrounds. The study was framed by a poststructural femin…

Intimate Partner Violence and Housing
Intimate partner violence (IPV) is an extreme example of gender inequality that compromises women’s citizenship. This article discusses the effects of IPV on women’s housing circumstances based on the findings of a large national Australian survey. The analysis found that IPV erodes women’s citizenship, which includes their access to safe and affordable housing, connections to “home,” and participation in community life. Drawing on notions of gen…
It Wasn’t About Being Slim”
This article explores how women understand and experience the relationship between physical, sexual, and emotional abuse and the emergence of an eating disorder in their lives. The past three decades have seen increased attention to the links between abuse and eating disorders; however, the social contexts of abuse, the specific emotions involved, and how these might link to an eating disorder have not been explored. Through an in-depth interview…
Gendered Intersubjectivities in Narratives of Recovery From an Eating Disorder
There is a growing body of qualitative research into women’s experiences of recovery from an eating disorder, however, as yet there has been little attention to the gendered social dimensions of these experiences. This in-depth interview study with eight recovered women was informed by the feminist concept of situated intersubjectivity, which allows for attention to both the discursive and material/lived dimensions of women’s experiences, as well…
Mothering and Domestic Violence
This article aimed to explore the complications and complexities of mothering in the contexts of domestic violence. Through interviews with nine women who had mothered in domestic violence, it was found that women do attempt to protect children from physical and emotional harm; however, the climate of fear, power, and control present in domestic violence limits protection, and women try pleasing their partners to prevent violence. This article ar…
Beyond Balancing Competing Needs
The recovery model of mental illness has become increasingly influential over the past two decades and while the synergies with social work are strong, there has been no examination of how social workers manage working within a recovery framework with involuntary clients in risk management-oriented settings. In this paper we report on a qualitative study with 10 mental health social workers exploring how such tensions are managed in everyday prac…

Power, Gender, and Social Work Responses to Child Sexual Abuse
This article reports on a study that used qualitative interviews with 10 social workers about their therapeutic practice with women who were sexually abused as children. It explores two dominant discursive themes that were identified in the analysis: normalizing the effects of childhood sexual abuse and gender power in practice. The analysis found that while engagement with narrative therapy brings a strong emancipatory orientation, normalizing t…
Resilience in re-entering missionaries
Re-entry to their country of origin is a significant disruption for a number of sojourners including missionaries. Although missionary re-entry has been studied in depth for over 20 years, little is known about what makes a missionary resilient to the challenges experienced in the stressful re-entry environment. Research suggests there are psychological, social, spiritual, and biological constructs connected with resilience. The aim of this paper…
Back Home
Over 200 Australian, American, and British Non-Government Organizations send aid workers overseas including missionaries. On re-entry, they may suffer psychological distress; however, there is little research about their psychosocial issues and management in the family practice setting. Research suggests loss and grief as a suitable paradigm for family practitioners dealing with psychosocial issues. The aim of this study was to explore loss and g…

Understanding body image disturbance in the promotion of mental health
Health care interventions in the area of body image disturbance and eating disorders largely involve individual treatment approaches, while prevention and health promotion are relatively underexplored. A review of health promotion activities in the area of body image in Australia revealed three programmes, the most extensive and longest standing having been established in 1992. The aims of this programme are to reduce body image dissatisfaction a…

Constructing the Self in Mental Health Practice
The discursive production of the 'self in the context of mental health care has potential implications for how the subjects of intervention come to understand and experience themselves. Eating disorders provide an illustrative example of the ways in which conceptualizations of the self that structure mental health practices can be gendered, because they are mainly diagnosed in women and dominant explanations of their origins are feminized. This d…

Love your body, move your body, feed your body”
Over the past decade, a number of health promotion programs have been developed in western countries to address body image dissatisfaction and associated eating disorders among women and girls. There has, however, been little critical examination of the application of health promotion theory and practice in this area. This paper reports on an interview study with health promotion workers responsible for managing and implementing the most extensiv…
Does psychological status influence clinical outcomes in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and other chronic gastroenterological diseases
BACKGROUND: Whether there is a temporal relationship between psychological problems and clinical outcomes in patients with diseases of the digestive tract has not been widely researched. Thus, our aims were 1) To observe and compare prospectively clinical outcomes in relation to psychological co-morbidity in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and chronic hepatitis C (HCV) and, 2) To test the hypothesis …
