"Domestic violence is commonly assumed to be a bipartisan, nonpolitical issue, with
politicians of all stripes claiming to work to end family violence. Nevertheless,
the Violence Against Women Act expired for over 500 days between 2012 and 2013 due
to differences between the U.S. Senate and House, demonstrating that legal protections
for domestic abuse survivors are both highly political and highly vulnerable. Racial
and gender politics, the move toward criminalization, reproductive justice concerns,
gun control debates, and political interests are increasingly shaping responses to
domestic violence, demonstrating the need for greater consideration of the interplay
of politics, domestic violence, and how the law works in people's lives. [This book
provides an] historical perspective on domestic violence responses in the United States.
It grapples with the ways in which child welfare systems and civil and criminal justice
responses intersect, and considers the different, overlapping ways in which survivors
of domestic abuse are forced to cope with institutionalized discrimination based on
race, gender, sexual orientation, and immigration status. The book also examines movement
politics and the feminist movement with respect to domestic violence policies. The
tensions discussed in this book, similar to those involved in the #metoo movement,
include questions of accountability, reckoning, redemption, healing, and forgiveness.
What is the future of feminism and the movements against gender-based violence and
domestic violence? Readers are invited to question assumptions about how society and
the legal system respond to intimate partner violence and to challenge the domestic
violence field to move beyond old paradigms and contend with larger justice issues"
