520			_aThis paper addresses how to respond to the abuser's current perceptions and experiences while avoiding collusion with abuser's justifications. It develops a language-based interpretation of the tactics abusers use to progressively claim authority and ownership over their partners' values, emotions and experience. It bases this interpretation on the frequent failure of men to acknowledge personal positions and values. It finishes by specifying three steps in the initial phases of interventions which aim to stop male abusers from using language to oppress their partners.
