Abstract
The Focus explores the phenomenon of male violence against women, investigating the reasons that push masculine violent behaviour, the roots of violence in “normalityµ, the mental processes of the violent male, and the possible institutional responses. The four essays deal with the subject with different approaches and methods, believing that understanding the reasons for violence can only benefit from the union of different research perspectives.
