This book offers an interdisciplinary perspective on femicide,
using Israel as an illuminating case study, given its diverse
communities and common-law-based legal system. Utilizing analytical
alongside practical perspectives, the book offers a novel
crimino-legal approach to femicide. In addition to its
interdisciplinary novelty, the book presents originality in going
beyond the more usual focus on the central victims and the common
legal tools. Here, the authors extend the analysis to secondary
victims of femicide and examine the applicability of second-tiered
relevant legal tools, mostly tort law, as a means for gaining
justice for the victims. This explorative journey culminates with
the authors' definition of femicide as a quintessential "crime of
distinct nature". In the context of current international pledges
to better understand and consequently better fight femicide, this
work allows readers to comprehend the phenomenon and the ways to
abolish it. The book will be an invaluable resource for academics,
researchers and policy makers working in the areas of criminal law,
tort law, family law, criminology and gender studies, as well as
for legal theorists and criminologists seeking integration of both
disciplines.
