State-sanctioned violence-built upon the foundation established by Intersectionality-introduces a purposeful socio-political agenda that is carried out by various levels of government to subjugate a group due to its beliefs, physical characteristics, and/or social circumstances. This book provides a conceptual foundation on state-sanctioned violence, critiques how this perspective holds relevance for social work research, education, and practice, examines specific examples of how and where state-sanctioned violence is manifested, and projects potential developments into the near future.
