Preventing Violence and Social Exclusion through Sport and Physical Activity: The SAVE Project
2018
Sport Against Violence and Exclusion (SAVE), a project cofounded by the Erasmus + Program of the European Union, seeks to prevent violent and socially exclusive behaviors through physical activity. The current editorial shows a range of possible interpretations of these two phenomena from both a psychological and sociological point of view, offering helpful methods to coaches who train children (ages 6 to 12)in grass-root sport clubs. Following a thorough analysis, partners from seven EU countries (Lithuania, Italy, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Austria, and Spain) will be able to identify skills and techniques for coaches to ensure inclusive training methods as well as to provid…
Quan la justícia és venjança, contra un jueu
2013
In Valencia, in the year 1380, the death of a child aged six unleashes hatred and fear. A Jewish man is accused of throwing a stone at him from his window. The Criminal Justice immediately opens a suit against him and, with amazing speed, pronounces sentence in less than three months. The prosecution, the defence and the witnesses provide a short but splendid picture of the lives of subordinate people in the lower classes, a picture that speaks of values, sociability and solidarity, unsteady roots and the always delicate relationship between Jews and Christians.[ca] La mort d’un nen de sis anys, a la València de 1380, desferma odis i temors. Un jueu és acusat d’haver-li llançat una pedrada …
Gertrude Bonnin on Sexual Morality
2021
This paper examines attitudes to sexual morality held by the Yankton Dakota author and activist Gertrude Bonnin (1876–1938), better known by her penname Zitkála-Šá (Red Bird in Lakota). Bonnin’s concerns encompass several themes: the victimization of Indian women, disintegration of Native courtship rituals, sexual threats posed by peyote use, and the predatory nature of Euro-American men. This critique as a whole — in which a ‘white invasion,’ in her words, leads to a corruption of Native sexuality — sometimes produces inconsistencies, particularly regarding Bonnin’s statements on the alleged sexual perils of peyote. Her investigations into the Oklahoma guardianship scandals of the 1920s, h…
Violencia y sociedad en una villa medieval : Castellón de la plana en el siglo XV
2006
On the evidence of local court rolls, this paper studies the patters of violence in a valencian small town oriented to a great extent toward agrarian activities. It was especially a structural and daily violence, that usually it was not caused by habitual criminals but by common people and even by members of the ruling group. Abuse of force usually taked place from poweful to weak (from richs to poors, from masters to serviants, from husbands to wives, from christians to muslims), so that these forms of violence reaffirmed internal hierarchies that divided local community.
Le genre des bris de machines : violence et mécanisation à l’aube de l’ère industrielle (Angleterre-France, 1750-1850)
2013
Les bris de machines constituent un type de violence recurrent en Angleterre et en France au debut de l’ere industrielle. Ce type de violence contestataire a ete peint essentiellement sous les traits d’une pratique masculine, impliquant le triomphe d’une conception virile des rapports sociaux et des conflits du travail. Loin d’etre marginales ou invisibles, les femmes sont pourtant bien presentes dans ces conflits, a la fois comme auxiliaires des hommes mais aussi comme actrices de plein droit insurgees contre les machines qui portent atteinte a la production domestique et a leur mode de vie. En examinant le genre des bris de machines, il s’agit a la fois de suivre comment les machines requ…

L’examen compare des sessions de 1850, 1900, 1950 et 2000, qui ponctuent a un demi-siecle d’intervalle les histoires respectives des IIe, IIIe, IVe et Ve Republiques, permet de clarifier a la lumiere des sources (Moniteur universel puis Journal officiel, mais aussi d’autres titres de la presse francaise, des ecrits de parlementaires, des archives audiovisuelles pour la periode la plus recente) ce qu’etait alors la violence, comment elle etait percue, ou se situaient les limites du phenomene. Il s’agit par la d’emettre des hypoth…
Domestic Homicide and Emotions from the Late Nineteenth Century to the 1920s
2020
Some scholars have suggested that a significant change in homicides and interpersonal violence occurred in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This new type of violence was characterised by strong feelings between the offender and their victim, and the change was connected to modernisation, changes in power balance between men and women, and individualism. Based on the Court of Appeal documents, we deduced that the murder of one’s spouse, father, or brother were the most prevalent homicides within families in Finland at the time. The Court documents, in conjunction with newspaper accounts, captured the trend of troubled family relationships and demonstrated that lethal family…
La violence dans la France moderne : une violence apprivoisée ?
2008
C’est un peu une idée reçue, y compris chez les historiens, de considérer les sociétés anciennes comme plus violentes que la nôtre. Il aurait fallu, dit-on souvent, attendre le xviiie siècle pour voir la violence commencer à reculer, et aussi à changer de nature, en devenant moins fruste et spontanée, en quelque sorte « apprivoisée ». L’idée de « civilisation des mœurs », développée par N. Élias, illustre bien cette conception. Pourtant, les travaux récents menés sur cette question amènent à ...

Program for the Prevention of Violence among Teenage Couples in the School Setting
2015
Domestic violence remains one of the major problems in the 21st century entailing severe costs and consequences for the victims. Despite the promulgated laws, this type of violence has increased among adolescents. Although several theories have been put forward to explain the causes of domestic violence, a psychobiological or social-educative explanation that proposes an agreed starting point for understanding and preventing this phenomenon is lacking. Experts in the field agree on the need for programs that focus on this relational problem; however, existing programs for adolescents have a broad spectrum where the prevention of domestic violence is just one more aspect of their objectives.…
