Antifeminism and Family Terrorism A Critical Feminist Perspective

Rhonda Hammer's Antifeminism and Family Terrorism presents original and provocative critical feminist perspectives on violence against women and children. Hammer provides a clear and insightful analysis of the current rhetoric produced by antifeminists who would deny the seriousness of the problem and thus undercut important feminist concerns. Dr. Hammer documents the tragic dimensions of the brutalization of women and children in the family, and the larger problem of the increasing poverty and oppression of women and children in the global economy.

Rhonda Hammer is a research scholar at the UCLA Center for the Study of Women and she teaches in women's studies and communication at UCLA.
