  abstract: Power and Control is indispensable for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of family violence, particularly in sociology, social work, women's studies, psychology, law enforcement, law and medical schools. The title has been recommended by Video Librarian, Educational Media Reviews Online, and Booklist. The complex issues around domestic abuse are refracted through the story of Kim, a Duluth, MN mother of three. Kim's struggles to find a better life for her family illustrate the social, cultural, legal and political dimensions of family violence. The film also tells the story of the creators of the hugely influential "Duluth Model," domestic violence policies that have been adopted around the world. Today the Duluth approach faces new challenges from outside critics. At the same time, leaders of the battered women's movement are struggling to rekindle the spirit of sisterhood that has propelled the movement for 30 years Along the way, this multi-level narrative also explores the deepest causes of domestic violence and the solutions that have evolved to stop it, celebrating the activists who demanded change in the 1980s, and examining new alternative approaches that are now being advocated.
