Abstract

Colleges and universities in the United States have been challenged to implement sometimes vague and constantly evolving federal laws and departmental guidance regarding how to respond to and prevent gender-based violence (GBV). State legislatures are also creating laws that may not be consistent with federal law and guidance. This chapter challenges the current model for addressing GBV by suggesting that, to be truly transformational, universities must give pedagogical time and space to the root causes and cultural underpinnings of GBV. The chapter describes a year-long interdisciplinary course offered to freshmen, co-taught by a philosophy professor and the Title IX coordinator, which, to transform students’ understanding, uses philosophers such as Plato to examine sexual violence and how it is structured in Western culture. The authors advocate for universities to incorporate classroom and organizational responses and collaborations to mitigate a culture of violence to eradicate GBV from higher education.
教“爱与战争”
在如何应对和预防基于性别的暴力方面,美国的学院和大学面临着执行有时含糊不清且不断演变的联邦法律和部门指导的挑战。州立法机构也在制定可能与联邦法律和指导意见不一致的法律。本章对当前解决性别暴力的模式提出了挑战,建议要真正实现转型,大学必须为性别暴力的根本原因和文化基础提供教学时间和空间。这一章描述了一门为期一年的跨学科课程,由一名哲学教授和第九条协调员共同教授,为了改变学生的理解,该课程使用柏拉图等哲学家来研究性暴力及其在西方文化中的结构。作者主张大学将课堂和组织反应与合作结合起来,以减轻暴力文化,从高等教育中根除性别暴力。
