In this episode Sarah and Lesley speak to Dr Nicola Roberts and Miss Demi Price about their paper ‘Gendered Perceptions of Domestic Violence: how young females are more likely than young males to know controlling domestic violence behaviours’ (click here to read the paper). Nicola and Demi’s paper (and this podcast episode) focuses on the views that young people hold about domestic violence (sometimes referred to in the podcast as DV). Nicola and Demi’s research shows that females consider a broader range of behaviours as domestic violence and in this podcast episode we discussed why this might be the case, what could (or should) be done about this, and what role social workers can play.

In this episode Dr Donna Peaock stepped in to co-host with Sarah so that we could speak to Lesley about her paper, ‘A neoliberalist solution for a neoliberalist problem: The neoliberal normalisation of psychosocial support for parent-carers’, co-authored with Philip Nicholson and Kim Allen (click here to read the paper).
Lesley’s paper (and this podcast episode) focuses on the impact of austerity measures on social care and in particular on women and mothers. We discussed the term ‘parent-carer’ as a contested label, the neoliberalisation of care, responsibiliation, and what it means to be a ‘good neoliberal citizen’. As always these discussions were brought back to practice and the conversation also touched on critical and reflective practice as well as Lesley’s model of ‘Faciltated Practice-Based Research’. Some useful points for social work practice were raised in this conversation and we hope you enjoy listening.
