Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Health care professionals are in a unique position to reach large numbers of patients; identify intimate partner violence through health care visits, records, and screening information (if available); and address survivors’ needs in a confidential and supportive setting. By examining nearly 300 general textbooks from the past decade, 1995-2005, that guide gynecology, internal medicine, and nursing coursework I provide an overview of theoretical terrain, conceptualization and politics that shape how battering and violence are understood and addressed by health care professionals. Drawing on feminist and organizational theory, the homogeneity and variation in the practices contained within health care practitioners’ textbooks explains how intimate partner violence is contested or remains unchallenged at an organizational level. In particular, I examine how the texts as a whole represent male battering of women and gay men; to what extent the texts focus on physiological issues related to battering; and whether they provide models of integrating biomedical and social psychological issues.
