EBook For The Criminalization of Violence Against Women 1st Edition By Heather Douglas, Kate Fitz-Gibbon, Leigh Goodm

Historically, governments have not done enough to address violence against women. In many countries, women’s rights groups have pushed for the government to take violence like domestic abuse, sexual harassment, and rape more seriously. This has led to new laws about intimate partner violence, sexual assault, and harassment, as well as protective orders and better procedures for police and prosecutors to handle these cases.

Many countries rely on their criminal justice systems to meet international human rights obligations, which require them to prevent and punish violence, protect victims, and provide help to those harmed. However, while criminal laws are the main way most countries try to address violence against women, these efforts are often not making the impact people hoped for. The problem of violence against women continues, showing that criminalization alone is not enough to solve it.
