Structure of the Seminar

This class will run as a seminar, with one or two people assigned to facilitate discussion on each topic, and the rest of us participating about equally. (You may at times find me talking too much or too little for your taste—you’ll need to push me in your preferred direction in that respect.) Here's my plan. At the end of each day, I will do a mini-lecture on the readings for the next day, giving you my take on what the main points are and how the reading fits into the general picture we are trying to explore.

At the beginning of each topic the person or persons (we need to discuss that) in charge of that topic will introduce the readings with their take on three questions: (1) what are the major strengths of the reading, (2) is the reading about intimate terrorism, common couple violence, violent resistance, mutual violent control, or some unknown mix of the four types, and (3) what are the major contributions of the reading to our understanding of each of the types of domestic violence. (Notice that there is no place here for criticism; that is because I want us to start on a positive note.) Then, the facilitators will facilitate our discussion, and this is where we can get seriously critical when necessary.

Grades will be based on (1) general level of contribution to the seminar discussions (about 25%), (2) quality of discussion facilitation (about 25%), and (3) a 15-20 page term paper, which will be due sometime from late October to early November, with different due dates for each of you (about 50%).

About the paper. It will be due early so that I can give you thorough feedback that you can use to revise the paper as you wish. As preliminary steps, a one page topic choice and justification is due September 7, and an outline and tentative bibliography is due September 28. That leaves you about a month to finish writing the paper. I will grade the papers as I get them and give you plenty of feedback. You may then rewrite the paper, and the rewrite will be due December 7. If you do rewrite the paper, only the grade on the final version will affect your course grade.

In the past I have also had students present their papers to the class, but for this course I seem to have found many more “essential” readings than we can even squeeze into a full 15 weeks. If you would rather have me eliminate a few weeks of the readings to make room for student presentations I will. If we do that, your presentation would also be a part of your grade.

Of course, I will expect your papers to deal with domestic/partner violence in some fashion, but because this is a course in an interdisciplinary program (WMNST), the paper focus and format will be very flexible, to suit the needs of students from a variety of disciplines. However, I have two types of paper in mind as most appropriate. The first is a literature review, in which you identify a narrowly defined question about domestic violence and review the literature on that question, assessing it in terms of conclusions that can or cannot be drawn about the four types of domestic violence. The second is a data analysis paper in which you do a brief literature review on a question that you then address empirically, using a data set that allows you to make distinctions among types of domestic violence. I have three such data sets: Irene Frieze’s data on 1970s Pittsburgh, the 1995 National Violence Against Women Survey, and the 1985 National Family Violence Survey. (Lynette Chow and Janel Leone also have data sets that we may be able to access.) If you would like to do a different sort of paper, we can work that out.

Readings

General comments:

Even in an area as narrowly defined as domestic violence, the current literature is vast—we owe a great debt to the Second Wave women’s movement for forcing the world to pay attention to the problem of wife-beating. In the 1990s there were literally thousands of papers published. Given that I am committed to keeping the amount of reading each week manageable, we will barely begin to touch the tip of the iceberg. I have tried to focus on the most central topics, and choose some of the best, most recent work. Occasionally there is a classic that must be read even though it may seem old to anyone under 40. I have also selected an edited book that purports to summarize what we have learned in the last twenty years of research. Although the editors of the book make reference to the distinctions I’ve discussed above, in general the book does not make the distinctions I believe are necessary. We will have to supply that perspective ourselves. There are three other books that I have assigned in their entirety. I don’t usually do that in seminars, but these books are so good that I feel reading a chapter or two from them simply wouldn’t do them justice. They are all artfully written. I hope you find them as insightful as I did.

Other readings:

Readings that are not in the books to be purchased will be available in 212 Oswald Tower for you to copy. Please do not keep them out for more than a few hours. Make your own copies quickly and return them. The seminar is full, and other students will need to get to them.

Reading for the first day:

I hate it when a once-a-week seminar meets on Friday. We don’t really get started until two weeks into the semester. Therefore, this semester I am emailing all of you a preliminary version of the decade review of domestic violence research that Kathleen Ferraro and I wrote for the Journal of Marriage and the Family. It differs in some small ways from the published version, but it is the easiest way to get it to all of you ahead of time. The actual published version is already in our course folder in 212 Oswald. Whichever version you use, please read it before the first class on August 24.
