- Description
- This article examines how economic, emotional and social-power related factors affect victims' behaviour in favor of prosecution during police investigations. Data drawn from police records and police narrative reports indicated that mutual charge, dual arrest, the severity of assaults and the severity of injuries suffered by victims negatively affected the victims' behavior in favor of prosecution. These findings suggest that the norm of unequal relationships between men and women combined with an indiscriminate use of mutual charge and dual arrest without considering the defensive or offensive nature of violent acts can reduce trust in the criminal justice system among women victims of domestic violence and decrease the victims' interest in pursuing prosecution.

- Description
- The article critically examines Washington State's Predator Law (1990). The most controversial part of the law provides for the indefinite civil commitment of `sexually violent predators'. Under the legislation, husbands who victimize their wives and children cannot be defined as predators. The author argues that the social construction of predators as sick strangers is an ideological construct. This non-conspirators construct diverts attention from the fact that male intrafamilial violence is by far the greatest threat to the safety of women and children. These diversionary tendencies in the predator discourse constitute a hitherto scarcely publicized backlash against feminist arguments about the need for criminal laws that work in the interests of all women and childeren.

- Description
- In this issue on victimization among the family and its direct relations a report of a nation-wide study on domestic violence in the Netherlands. The cooperation of battered women as victims and witnesses is analyzed by examining experiences, opinions and perceptions of experts who deal most closely with batterd women in the United States. Female abusers of children are discussed and the way in which such cases are processed by the criminal justice system. 76 Cases of intimate femicide (killing of women by their intimate male partners) in Israel during 1990 and 1995 are investigated. The findings are put in a theoretical framework which assumes that violence in society will be positively related to stress factors and negatively related to support systems. Also the effects of and the victimization history of women in England and Wales on the likelihood of them receiving at least one obscene or nuisance phone call is being described.

- Description
- The author argues that where the state alleges failure to protect against a battered mother, the appropriate standard must particularize and account for the violence. Morover, she argues that culture structures relationships within the family and measures appropriate maternal behavior according to a generalized standard. To particularize the violence, deconstruct the normative process and reconstruct the materiality of battered mothers' lives, the appropriate standard is a reasonable battered mother test (RBMT).

- Description
- In 1992, the Tamil Nadu State government in India began to introduce all-women police stations whose primary role is to deal with crimes against women, including family violence and dowry disputes. Dowry giving is a customary practice in India, which often results in disputes between young wives and their new families. As a result, the young women may be subjected to physical and mental ill treatment. Using detailed data from 474 case records and interviews with 60 dowry victims, this study examines how women police stations serve as a dispute processing system, and describes the services extended by the stations to the victims of dowry disputes.

- Many feminists target ignorance of domestic violence as the main reason for judicial resistance to decisions that would punish abusers and redress battered women's harms. But feminist demands to educate courts - to create, for example, a reformed tort law system in which courts understand and take into account the complex situation of battered women litigants - seek an epistemological grounding from which to adjudicate the intractable contradictions in both legal discourse and cultural discourse about women. Domestic violence continues to co-exist with public condemnation of such violence by feminists and some lawmakers. Domestic violence is an open secret in our culture, fated to interface at common law with the open secret in American jurisprudence that the myth of an abstract rule of law is at the same time readily deconstructed, yet crucial and indispensable. Ignorance is not a cognitive darkness from which people emerge into the light of understanding. Rather, ignorance is pluralized and specified to correspond to various regimes of knowledge. For battered women, these regimes of knowledge include cultural mandates that women be intelligible in terms of pre-determined gender roles and sexual identities. For adjudicators, these regimes of knowledge include professional mandates to sustain the authority of precedent through appeals to a rule of law. The combination of (i) the utility to courts of an abstract rule of law, and (ii) social prescriptions for the intelligibility of women, fosters a privileged ignorance of violence against women that will not be erased through enlightenment.
