It is distinctive in its use of a mixed-methods approach, integrating both quantitative and qualitative research to capture the complexity of these men’s lived experiences. Unlike most studies that focus solely on trauma or FDV within African communities, this work critically examines how pre-migration trauma, acculturation stress, and shifting masculinities contribute to FDV—a perspective that has been largely overlooked in existing literature. Additionally, the book challenges stereotypical narratives that frame refugee men solely as perpetrators of violence. Instead, it situates FDV within a broader socio-cultural and systemic framework, considering the impact of war trauma, economic stressors, mental health challenges, and support systems on men's behaviours and relationships.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21 July 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Nature Singapore\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9789819218639\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e208\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Nature Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49493438038156,"sku":"9789819218639","price":125.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789819218639.jpg?v=1781089560","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9789819218639","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
