Housing and Domestic Abuse provides an analysis of how housing
policy has been historically utilised in responding to domestic
abuse. The authors trace the history of policy from the feminist
roots of the refuge movement, to the use of 'anti-social behaviour'
legislation to address abuse, and the current proposals being
considered. The UK government and devolved governments in Scotland
and Wales are currently making significant changes to the ways they
address domestic abuse, including involving housing policy in their
responses. This book provide details of the differential approaches
of the Scottish and Welsh governments and proposes a 'whole housing
approach' to addressing abuse. Readers will gain a detailed
knowledge of historic, and current policy and practice in this
area. They will also benefit from insights from two of the leading
scholars in their respective fields of housing and domestic abuse
policy and practice. This book will be of interest to academics,
policy makers and practitioners across the fields of housing and
domestic abuse policy and practice, as well as students studying
social policy more broadly.
