Kadına Karşı Şiddet Uygulayan Erkeklere Yönelik Sosyal Hizmet Uygulamalarının Değerlendirilmesi: Bir Model Önerisi
Özet
Professional work with perpetrators of violence against women is one of the most important aspects of combating violence against women. This study examines Turkey's policies on combating violence against women, using Anger Management Training as a unit of analysis, which emerged in Ankara in 2014. The goal of the research is to examine the aforementioned education and policies in Turkey holistically through the perpetrators who participated in the training, the professionals who provided the training, and the case records kept in the training. The study employs qualitative methodology. In this context, 30 men and 8 professionals who took part in the training were interviewed in depth. In addition, a secondary analysis of 255 case files from the training was conducted. Four themes emerged. These include "What the ‘Event’ Tells Us: Control or Conflict?" "Where Control and Conflict Dynamics Meet", "World of Men/Masculinities", and "A Social Work Intervention: Anger Management Education." It has been demonstrated that masculinity and violence have a cyclic causal relationship. According to the findings of this study, men have two distinct orientations: conflict and control dynamics. Gender-based violence against women, according to this study, is a process. Men are involved at various stages of this process. It has been discovered that men's differences influence how they evaluate Anger Management Education. Furthermore, men have described participating in education through a court sanction as being in a "feminine" position. According to the findings of this study, both groups discursively reproduce hegemonic masculinities derived from binary oppositions. Furthermore, the historical development of perpetrator programs was divided into three phases: “birth”, “standardization”, and “criticism and development”. It has been discovered that working with perpetrators in Turkey reflect the characteristics of the birth and standardization phases. It has been revealed that Turkey has not yet reached the stage of criticism and development that considers multiple causality and hegemonic masculinities in relation to violence. In this research, a model proposal was developed that takes into account the differences (typologies) and commonalities (hegemony) of perpetrators. This model includes two modules to be used separately for perpetrators with Conflict and Control Dynamics.
