Preferred term

feminist theories of aggression  

Definition

  • Feminist theory represents divergent perspectives that are still emerging; however, there is widespread consensus that traditional academic research has failed to recognize the relationship between power and gender in violence. Feminist perspectives challenge the claim that individual pathology is the root cause of violent behavior and use gender as a starting point for analysis of violence. [Source: Encyclopedia of Murder and Violent Crime; Aggression: Feminist Perspective]
