Police response to incidents of intimate partner violence can be
critical. This volume investigates the elements in the
institutional, legal and organizational context that are relevant
for police response to incidents in the realm of the private sphere
and whether there exists a relation with the reporting of such
incidents by victims. Addressing this complex question requires
insights from research, policy and practice and, as such, any
conclusions will have implications for each of these fields. This
volume addresses issues that are key elements in the relationship
between the (legal) response to family violence and the reporting
by victims. These issues concern societal and legal definitions of
family violence employed in research, policy making and legal
practice; how the legislation of various countries covers violence
in the private sphere; the way the police deal with reported
incidents of intimate partner violence; and the role that other
interventions play in the response to and combat of family violence
and intimate partner violence.
