Substance Abuse and Woman Abuse by Male Partners Larry W. Bennett, Ph.D. Jane Addams College of Social Work, University of Illinois at Chicago Publication Date: September 1997 Table of Contents Introduction Perspectives On Substance Abuse and Woman Abuse Substance Abuse and Batterers Substance Abuse and Battered Women ... In Brief Introduction Substance abuse and woman abuse are closely associated in the public's mind, so much so that many people believe the use of substances is a direct cause of woman abuse. Others view substance use as a risk factor which, while not a direct cause, may increase the frequency or severity of woman abuse. Still others believe substance abuse and woman abuse are separate issues, and any apparent relationship between them is illusory. Substance abuse, as used in this paper, refers both to the abuse of alcohol or other drugs, and to dependency on alcohol or other drugs. While partner violence includes same-sex violence, this discussion of partner violence will be limited to abuse of women by their male partners or ex-partners, so the term woman abuse will be used throughout this paper.

WHO's mandate in the area of substance abuse include: 1- Prevent and reduce the negative health and social consequences of psychoactive substance use; 2- Reduce the demand for non-medical use of psychoactive substances; 3- Assess psychoactive substances so as to advise the United Nations with regard to their regulatory control Various groups in the Organization deal with substance use issues, such as the Tobacco Free Initiative (all issues related to tobacco use), the Task Force on Alcohol Policy (on a global alcohol policy), Mental Health Determinants and Populations (issues related to primary prevention of substance use) and the Department of Essential Drugs and Medicines Policy.
