This book presents a variety of socio-legal perspectives on issues
of domestic violence and abuse. Focussing on contemporary research
and practice developments in policing, law, statutory and voluntary
sectors, the contributors to this volume cover a vast spectrum of
initiatives and professional expertise concerned variably with
protection, prevention and intervention priorities. The challenges
of "joined up" thinking across these perspectives are apparent as
the varied definitions, underpinning ideologies, terminologies, the
profile of the victim/survivor's voice and identified gaps in
service provision appearing in this book illustrate. As a
reflection on the current economic climate, some of the
perspectives presented necessarily compete rather than complement
each other, an issue the volume highlights and addresses. Achieving
a broader understanding of these issues and insights into a range
of activity in this context is vital for both the practitioner and
academic alike, whatever their perspective.
