 the history of relationship conflict in emerging discussions of interperso
 nal abuse in late-20th-century Britain. It looks at how the boundaries sep
 arating acceptable and unacceptable conflict – with the former presented
  as an inescapable part of many marriages – became the subject of inquir
 y and heated debate in the 1970s and 80s. Focusing on the contributions of
  feminists\, advocates for “battered women’s” refuges\, marriage the
 rapists\, and queer activists\, it looks at how recent insights into traum
 a and family conflict shaped rising attention to new kinds of violent and 
 non-violent subjects.\n\nBio:\n\nTeri Chettiar is a historian of the human
  sciences. Her research focuses on how changing understandings of mental a
 nd emotional health in the 20th century have interacted with and shaped ma
 rginalized identities and movements for social and sexual reform. Her firs
 t book\, The Intimate State: How Emotional Life Became Political in Welfar
 e-State Britain (Oxford University Press\, 2022)\, examines how British st
 ate-supported mental health initiatives made emotional intimacy and lifelo
 ng monogamy both politically valued and personally desired in the second h
 alf of the twentieth century. She is currently working on two projects: on
 e focuses on the history of intergenerational trauma and the other examine
 s ongoing race\, gender\, and class-based disparities related to the diagn
 osis and treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in t
 he US\, Canada\, and the UK.
