Popis: This chapter introduces a feminist research approach on violence as a valuable framework to explore the complexities of abusive practices and behaviours in gendered organizations. The chapter presents the concept of emotional workplace abuse. In addition, the chapter outlines the key themes from feminist research on violence that are adopted in this book: the continuum of violations, the breach of the public–private distinction, and the lack of recognition and validation that the target faces. The chapter concludes with a discussion on the methodological and theoretical underpinnings of the study.
