Showing titles in Sexual Abuse & Harassment

Che cosa significa esattamente "fare mobbing"? È un attacco ai diritti civili, ma connaturato al lavoro organizzato; è una minaccia al buon funzionamento delle organizzazioni, ma ci sono stili di gestione che lo rendono più probabile; è individuale nelle conseguenze ma è collettivo nei meccanismi che lo innescano. Per chi ha potere è più facile esercitarlo ma le false accuse di mobbing sono a loro volta una potente arma di mobbing.

From the creators of Molestation Monologues (Voice Arts Awards nominee) and Secrets Unleashed Game: Talk Play Heal, comes a new audiobook on sexual abuse - specifically child sexual abuse - and why some survivors may choose to remain silent. The audiobook jumps around a bit as if one minute they are talking to a fellow survivor, and the next minute they are talking to a caretaker or friend, but one thing is consistent throughout: their deep compassion and care for survivors of abuse.

Despite what major media sources say, violence against Native women is not an epidemic. An epidemic is biological and blameless. Violence against Native women is historical and political, bounded by oppression and colonial violence. This book, like all of Sarah Deer's work, is aimed at engaging the problem head-on - and ending it. The Beginning and End of Rape collects and expands the powerful writings in which Deer has advocated for cultural and legal reforms to protect Native women from endemic sexual violence and abuse.

Marr reveals a cleric at ease with power and aggressive in asserting the prerogatives of the Vatican. His account of Pell’s career focuses on his response as a man, a priest, an archbishop and prince of the church to the scandal that has engulfed the Catholic world in the last 30 years. This is the story of a cleric slow to see what was happening around him; torn by the contest between his church and its victims; and slow to realise that the Catholic Church cannot, in the end, escape secular scrutiny.

On the Wrong Side provides the first comprehensive account of the inner workings of the secretive Title IX system. Drawing on a yearlong study of survivors, perpetrators, and the administrators who oversaw their cases, sociologist Nicole Bedera exposes the structures that predictably punish survivors who come forward in the service of protecting—or even rewarding—their perpetrators. She reveals that the system tasked with ending gender inequality on campus only intensifies it, upending survivors’ lives and threatening their degrees.

Menschen, die sich daran erfreuen, andere zu quälen, ihnen Schmerz oder Leid zuzufügen, nennen wir Sadisten. Aber sie sind nicht alle gleich: Die Sadisten, die ihre Neigung als erotische Spielart oder Präferenz ausleben, lassen sich klar unterscheiden von jenen, die ihre Gewalt- und Tötungsfantasien nicht kontrollieren können, bis hin zu grausamsten Straftaten an unschuldigen Opfern. Als Straftäterpsychologin und Ermittlungsberaterin bei Kriminalfällen, als Szene-Insider und Therapeutin ist Lydia Benecke an Tätern wie Opfern nah dran.
