    Domestic Violence includes violence against spouses and partners, children, and elders in our society. It is a serious and often hidden problem. The Judicial Committee of the United States Senate estimates that close to 5 million assaults, murders, and rapes are committed against women in their homes each year. The statistics in reported incidences of reported child abuse are staggering and increasing dramatically. And while men are often too embarrassed to report it, men also are raped and battered. In this course we will use the sociological imagination to shift through competing perspectives on the causes of this violence. Prerequisite: SO 101.
