This has been particularly true in institutions designed to care for people with disabilities. In this work, the authors not only \u003ci\u003edescribe\u003c\/i\u003e institutional violence, but work to make sense of how and why institutional violence within care settings is both so pervasive and so profound. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on a wide range of primary data, including oral histories of institutional survivors and staff, ethnographic observation, legal proceedings and archival data, this book asks: What does institutional violence look like in practice and how might it be usefully categorized? How have extreme forms violence and neglect come to be the cultural norm across institutions? What organizational strategies in institutions foster the abdication of personal morality and therefore violence? How is institutional care the crucial \"first step\" in creating a culture that accepts violence as the norm? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis highly interdisciplinary work develops scholarly analysis of the history and importance of institutional violence and, as such, is of particular interest to scholars whose work engages with issues of disability, health care law and policy, violence, incarceration, organizational behaviour, and critical theory. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKate Rossiter\u003c\/strong\u003e is an Associate Professor in the Department of Health Studies at Wilfrid Laurier University's Brantford campus, and is the Principal of Recounting Huronia: An Arts-Based Participatory Research Project.
