This edited collection addresses a substantial gap in the existing
literature on filicide by presenting the latest research from
empirical investigations around the world. Despite its low
occurrence, little is known about the incidences, causes and
circumstances of filicide nationally and globally, and this
international volume address the challenges associated with
explaining and understanding filicide. Additionally, the authors
also outline the role of professionals in assessing risk, and the
importance of support for, and advocacy of, families of victims in
the aftermath of these tragic events. Exploring a truly diverse
range of countries, from various English speaking countries, to
Chile, and Japan, this book presents an authoritative look at
research on filicide, and crucially, examines the programs
currently being developed for both intervention and prevention. An
important and well-researched collection, this book will be of
particular interest for scholars of do mestic violence and
filicide, as well as professionals such as social workers.
