Description
The challenge of violence against women should be recognised as an issue for the state, citizenship and the whole community.
This book examines how responses by the state sanction violence against women and shape a woman's citizenship long after she has escaped from a violent partner.
Drawing from a long-term study of women's lives in Australia, including before and after a relationship with a violent partner, it investigates the effects of intimate partner violence on aspects of everyday life including housing, employment, mental health and social participation. The book contributes to theoretical explanations of violence against women by reframing it through the lens of sexual politics.
Finally, it offers critical insights for the development of social policy and practice.
