Content:

In this module, students will consider the impact that violence in the family has on the person experiencing it and also the impact on others living in the household – particularly children and young people. They will be expected to analyse different theories and responses to this social problem. Students will learn about family violence in the context of culture and ethnicity. They will also learn about the experience of violence across the life course, from babies to the elderly. Students will have the opportunity to make clear links between theory and practice, in the national and international context.
