Connecting the Dots: The Link Between Family Violence and War with Gary Barker and Riane Eisler

This episode explores the profound connection between intimate violence—primarily in families —and its role in perpetuating violence in broader societal relations. Research reveals that such violence is not just a private matter but a fundamental aspect of domination systems, laying the groundwork for war, terrorism, and crime. By overlooking family and intimate violence we miss a crucial piece of the puzzle in understanding and dismantling systemic and intergenerational violence.
