“…Este modelo puso el acento en los aspectos estructurales y sociales que permitían explicar la VG, diferenciándose de explicaciones de corte psicopatológico (González Oddera, 2016). En el ámbito anglosajón, tuvo un peso específico la retórica del feminismo radical (Haaken, 2008), que propuso pensar la familia y el ámbito doméstico como escenario privilegiado (pero no único) de reproducción de un orden social desigual, amparado en una serie de representaciones sociales. Desde la apelación al concepto de patriarcado, autoras centrales del feminismo radical aplicaron categorías de análisis político a la vida privada, proponiendo nuevas claves de lectura para la sexualidad, la maternidad y la intimidad (Millet, 1995;Firestone, 1976).…”

Neste artigo, reconstruímos a maneira como a categoria mulher maltratada surgiu na psicologia argentina, numa circulação peculiar entre a sociedade civil e o Estado. A partir da abordagem da história crítica da psicologia com as contribuições da história recente, analisamos a recepção no cenário local, na interligação da agenda de direitos humanos com o ideário feminista. Analisamos como a violência de gênero foi incluída na agenda governamental, no ativismo feminista e na produção teórica da psicologia. Incluímos a solidariedade e as diferenças entre essas áreas, levando em conta as representações e valores envolvidos nos usos das diferentes categorias.

“…De allí, el conocido slogan de este feminismo: lo personal es político (de Miguel, 1995). Diversas autoras han demostrado que el feminismo radical norteamericano ha tenido un papel central en la tematización de la violencia en la pareja (Haaken, 2008;Rodriguez Martinez, 2011), produciendo un específico cuadro de situación y convirtiéndose en la versión hegemónica dentro del feminismo, en torno a este tema (Rodriguez Martinez, 2011). …”

Aportes para pensar la violencia en la familia: luces y sombras del discurso feminista 1 Contributions on thinking violence in the family. Lights and shadows of feminist discourse Mariela González Oddera Universidad Nacional de La Plata ResumenEn este trabajo, analizo los aportes del discurso feminista -en particular, del feminismo radical-a la tematización de la violencia en la familia. Este marco referencial ha tenido un papel central en la reflexión teórica sobre el tema, estableciendo una cosmovisión ampliamente aceptada sobre cómo pensar la violencia, fundamentalmente en el vínculo de pareja. En virtud de lo anterior, destaco tanto las características centrales del feminismo, como los principales núcleos semánticos con los que ha aportado densidad explicativa a la temática mencionada. Para finalizar, desarrollo una serie de cuestionamientos que se han realizado a la denominada versión hegemónica que se desprende de este marco referencial, a saber: la dificultad para acotar la referencialidad de la categoría "violencia de género"; la esencialización mujer-víctima; la invisibilización de otros escenarios de la violencia en los vínculos familiares y la consideración de la mujer como no-violenta.

“…Critical theory considers how macro-systems ideologies, power and practices may marginalise, stereotype, oppress and abuse older people (Haaken, 2008;Ray, Bernard & Phillips, 2009). Penhale (2003) argues that elder abuse is an outcome of multiple forms of oppression but that this is yet to be fully explored or understood.…”

“…They point to the limited discussion on oppression at policy level, in spite of policy decisions potentially contributing to an unequal distribution of resources, which in turn may reduce opportunities and choices available to older people (Harbison, 1999;Haaken, 2008;Phillipson, 2013). Advocates of a critical approach campaign for a human rights response to elder abuse where interventions focus on empowerment and advocacy rather than protection (Phelan, 2008;Harbison et al, 2012;Anand et al, 2014).…”

A cog in the wheel or an agent of change: Knowledge use and practice with older people who are abused in Aotearoa/New Zealand

Across the past three decades a growing national and international concern about elder abuse is evident in policy, research and social and health care practice. There is currently a considerable body of literature on prevalence, predictors and risk factors as well as debates about definitions, conceptualisations and appropriate legal, policy and practice responses. There is more limited research on how the conceptualisations of ageing and elder abuse shape professional practice. Knowledge use and social work practice in elder abuse in the context of Aotearoa/New Zealand is the focus of this thesis.This thesis presents a qualitative exploratory study of elder abuse practice as reported by twenty social workers engaged in frontline elder abuse work throughout Aotearoa/New Zealand. The purposive sample of social workers practised in a variety of settings and were situated in different geographic locations across the country. The primary focus of this study is to explore how elder abuse is understood, how cases of In individual semi-structured interviews, participants were asked to describe their understandings of elder abuse, to explore the knowledge they use to inform these understandings, and to give details about what actions they take when encountering situations of abuse.An interpretative, social constructionist approach to this research was taken. All twenty accounts of practice were analysed thematically. This provided a means by which the processes of, and influences on, meaning, knowledge use and response-making could be scrutinised, and an understanding of elder abuse practice in Aotearoa/New Zealand could be discerned.The findings indicate that the term 'elder abuse' is universally recognised and articulated in practice, but when explored in depth, understandings about what constitutes elder abuse varied, were dependent on the knowledge individual social ii | P a g e workers brought to their practice, and on the context in which the practice occurred. This knowledge was not always explicitly used and consequently was often left unscrutinised. The use of tacit knowledge was seen to facilitate the establishment of patterns of practice that have become customary and are left unchallenged.The influence of the context on what could or could not be done to respond to elder abuse was acknowledged by many of these social workers. Beyond the immediate resource constraints that were recognised as limiting their options to address abuse, the significance of the socio-economic-historic-cultural-political context and how this informed and shaped social work practice (and the experiences of older people) were not readily identified by most. When these factors were noted, they were largely considered to be insurmountable.The findings from this study highlight that a narrow approach is taken by most of the social workers in this study when working with older people who are abused. There is little demonstrated understanding the socio/political context in which the abuse occurs, and the systemic issues that may co...
