Structural Abuse

Structural Abuse

Structural abuse should not be confused with structural violence. Structural violence refers to action committed by the larger society, like racism or classism in a entire society. Structural abuse refers to actions that aren’t necessarily endorsed through the broader society. Structural abuse is indirect, and exploits the victim on an emotional, mental and also psychological level. The item manifests itself inside specific situations in each cultural, sociable, corporate and household framework.
