The paper explores the complex issue of workplace violence as it is experienced by young males who are victims of various forms of abuse. It highlights, through use of media reports and composite vignettes, the range of violent practices that some young males experience at work. By way of interpretation the different events are placed within a context of literature that explores the links between masculinities and violence. Through Alice Miller's work, the paper explores the idea that pedagogies of abuse are handed on from generation to generation and are learned practices. The paper concludes with consideration of the implications for education
