Abstract
The book collects a series of essays from a multidisciplinary perspective that aim to highlight how violence against women takes on much more subtle and complex forms than those that the news highlights almost daily.
Gender-based violence, in fact, is directed against a person because of their gender identity, and therefore refers to that socio-cultural construct that defines roles and behaviours considered appropriate for men and women in a certain context and in a certain period historical. For this reason, the volume analyses the phenomenon from a historical and anthropological point of view, as well as from a legal and economic one. No less relevant is the focus on aspects related to gender medicine, a fundamental key to understanding every form of violence.
