The Dynamics of Battering Revisited

Alice Chornesky

School of Social Work, New Mexico State University, MSC 3SW, P.O. Box 30001, Las Cruces, NM 88003-8001achornes{at}nmsu.edu

There is no agreement on the theories that attempt to explain the abuse of women by their partners or spouses. Thus, interventions vary, depending on individual practitioners' conceptualizations of the problem. This article uses attachment theory and theories of connection and relationship to examine the causes of spousal violence and the tendency for abusive relationships to persist.
