Popis: This volume concerns the ‘day-to-day individual suffering of interpersonal violence’, as Mandela so vividly expresses it, in the quote that opened the chapter. Throughout the volume, interpersonal violence will be defined as ‘the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another person, or against a group or community, that either results in or has a likelihood of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm, maldevelopment or deprivation’ (WHO, 1996, p. 5).
