This book provides a detailed exploration of the responses of the
criminal justice system to domestic abuse in Northern Ireland. The
book's primary focus is on developments which have taken place
since around 2010, and in particular since the restoration of the
Northern Ireland Assembly in January 2020 after a three year
suspension. The book includes discussion of the increased levels of
domestic abuse in Northern Ireland in the context of the COVID-19
pandemic, and analyses the ways in which the criminal justice
system responded. In addition, the book includes in-depth
discussion of the Domestic Abuse and Civil Proceedings Act
(Northern Ireland) 2021, which had the effect of criminalising
coercive control, and the implications of this legislation for
Northern Ireland's response to domestic abuse. The book will be of
great interest to academics and researchers from a wide variety of
disciplines, such as criminal law, criminology, social policy,
human rights, family law, gender studies and sociology; as well as
practitioners and those in the voluntary sector who are working in
the area of combating domestic abuse. It can also be used on
courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels which
incorporate the topic of domestic abuse.
