- Description
- In England and Wales two women are killed every week by a current or former partner. One women in four is physically abused during her lifetime. The 2004 Domestic Violence Crime and Victims Act has made a new offence of familial homicide, and the Act is designed to cover all violent home incidents, especially if they involve children or vulnerable adults. Programmes for perpetrators which adress violent behaviour and seek to change it are proving invaluable. The focus is also on another issue affecting families, women offenders. New initiative and cash have been made available to stop the cycle of reoffending, with the Home Office's Women's Offending Reduction Programme playing a key role.

- Description
- The reconstruction of both the killing and the marital history of a Turkish Muslim couple is illustrative of the cultural discourse on violence against women (VAW) among Muslim minorities that is currently evolving in a multi-cultural society that is facing increasingly discriminatory attitudes towards Muslims. Stereotypical images of “culturally” based violence are growing in popularity and contribute to the discursive construction of Muslim minorities as particularly violent, especially towards women, and notably as more violent than the native Dutch. This paper critically addresses how this tendency is playing out in Dutch research.

- Description
- Qualitative research and population based survey on 3,130 women of reproductive age (15-49 years) in urban and rural areas of Bangladesh to study the prevalence and consequences of domestic violence against women and their coping strategies. Sixty percent of women reported ever being physically or sexually abused during their lives. Their husbands were the most common perpetrator. Two-thirds of the abused women have never talked about their experience of violence and almost none accessed formal services for support. To address this major public health problem, the prevailing attitudes that permit and encourage male violence against women must be directly addressed.
