Abstract
The introductory chapter provides a rationale for the book, outlining how the gendering of
men’s violence in specific fields have failed to consider the interconnections, intersections,
and continuities between these fields. Naming only some violences as gendered enables other
violences to go unmarked. We argue that that all violences are gendered, even when they are
not perpetrated by men. We review the key issues in specific fields of gendered violences
including men’s violence against women, children and young people, other men, gay, trans
and non-binary people, disabled people and men’s violence against themselves. We also
consider how gendered violence is enacted through colonialism, militarism and war, and in
relation to non-human animals and the environment, as well as through epistemic injustice.
We conclude the chapter with a substantive guide to the chapters by our contributors who,
from a diverse range of disciplinary backgrounds, foreground specific fields of gendered
violence and explore their interconnections with other violences enacted by men.
