Domestic Violence
Who Died? The Murder of Collaterals Related to Intimate Partner Conflict
Using data from the Murder in Britain Study, the authors focus on murders that are related to intimate partner conflict but involve the killing of a person other than the intimate partner. Intimate partner collateral murders (IPCM) include children, allies, and new partners. The findings expand the number and types of murder associated with intimate partner conflict, characterize the three main types of collaterals, compare the childhood and adul…
What Were They Thinking? Men Who Murder an Intimate Partner
The focus is on cognitions of men who murder an intimate partner and includes thinking prior to and after the murder. Based on the Murder in Britain Study, the qualitative accounts of various professionals included in the case-files of 104 men convicted of murdering a woman partner are used to examine beliefs about intimate relationships, orientations toward violence and previous violence to the victim, as well as subsequent denials, rationalizat…
Out of the Blue”
It came “out of the blue” is often said when a man with no known history of criminality kills his intimate partner. This reflects a belief that a “conventional man” without a criminogenic past or a problematic personal history would not commit murder. Casefiles from the Murder in Britain Study are used to compare men with no previous conviction (NoConvict, n = 25) with men with at least one previous conviction prior to the murder (PrevConvict, n …
Lethal and Nonlethal Violence Against an Intimate Female Partner
Men's lethal and nonlethal violence against an intimate female partner are compared. Various risk factors are examined to compare men's lethal and nonlethal violence against an intimate woman partner. Relative to abusers, men who kill are generally more conventional with respect to childhood backgrounds, education, employment, and criminal careers, are more likely to be possessive and jealous, and are more likely to be separated from their partne…
Not an Ordinary Killer— Just an Ordinary Guy
The Murder in Britain Study was designed to examine in detail different types of murder. Using a subset of case files from this study, men who murder other men (MM;n = 424) are compared with men who murder an intimate partner (IP;n = 106) to reflect on the relative conventionality of each group. In terms of many of the characteristics of childhood and adulthood, the IP murder group differs from theMMgroup and appears to be more “ordinary” or “con…
Domestic Violence
Women, Violence and Social Change
Women, Violence and Social Change demonstrates how refuges and shelters stand as the core of the battered women's movement, providing a basis for pragmatic support, political action and radical renewal. From this base movements in Britain and the United States have challenged the police, courts and social services to provide greater assistance to women. The book provides important evidence on the way social movements can successfully challenge in…
Seeking Informal Support
This exploratory study conducted from 1997 to 1998 is the first study to empirically investigate Greek battered women's help-seeking behavior from informal sources of help. In-depth interviews were conducted with 17 abused women in the only refuge for battered women in Athens. Results of this study indicate that Greek women tend to suffer years of violence before they ask for help because of various personal and sociocultural factors. These facto…
Remedial Work’
Based on interviews with 122 men who had used violence against their partner, and employing Goffman's (1971) concept of 'remedial work', this paper interrogates violent men's perceptions, constructions and understandings of domestic violence and their responses to its use. Accounts of women partners are also examined. 'Remedial work' involves the perpetrator of an act of untoward behaviour in various forms of 'damage limitation' intended to chang…

The 'Last Violent Event
This article is based on qualitative and quantitative data derived from 53 interviews conducted with Greek battered women. It documents information on the structural and dynamic aspects of the 'Last Violent Event' experienced by them before they sought help from various services. A structured, open-ended but systematically mannered interview schedule was used to capture the details of the events and achieve comparability across interviews. Refere…
Drug-Taking, 'Risk Boundaries' and Social Identity
The instrumental use of steroids and analogous drugs is a normalised practice in bodybuilding subculture. However, in a society where bodily health and lifestyle are conjoined, such risk-taking carries negative connotations. Bodybuilders using drugs for purposes of physique enhancement are able to resist accusations of opprobrium and maintain competent social identity by drawing a sharp contrast between themselves and 'junkies'. This self-serving…
A Research Evaluation of British Programmes for Violent Men
In the last two decades there have been a number of social, medical and legal initiatives in the UK and elsewhere to provide assistance to women who suffer violence from their partner. The most recent innovations focus on responding to the men who perpetrate this violence. In this article we present the initial results of the first British study of programmes for violent men. The three-year study used a longitudinal method to compare the effects …
Rethinking Violence Against Women
Based on a series of international workshops sponsored by the Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation, this volume advances theories, methodologies, and policy analyses relating to various forms of violence against women. Divided into three parts, this text comprehensively examines the following topics: the nature, importance, and variety of cultural contexts in which violence occurs, is reproduced, and may be challenged or changed; the nature and vari…
Separate and Intersecting Realities
The authors seek to contribute to a fuller understanding of men's violence against women in intimate relationships by comparing men's and women's accounts of the violence, injuries, and controlling behavior used by men against women partners. Although men and women inhabit a shared physical and social space within the home, their lived experiences and perceptions of such relationships often differ. Despite this, many studies do not consider what …

Simulated Clients in 'Natural' Settings
In this paper, we outline the use of a data collection technique referred to as the 'simulated client' which was developed in order to gather information about how solicitors negotiate the financial aspects of divorce with clients. The purpose of the study was to examine how a specific piece of law reform is incorporated into the usual practice of solicitors. The setting was the solicitor's first meeting with a client seeking divorce. The intenti…
Ignorance and Suspicion
Most evidence on public perception and experience of criminal justice is based on research from the United States and this work is rarely comparative. This paper presents results of a comparative analysis of young people's contacts with and perceptions of criminal justice in Scotland and West Germany. Comparisons are made of criminal justice approaches to young people, experiences and attitudes toward the police, perceptions of criminal justice s…

Community Response to Violence against Wives
Here we analyze the forms of community and institutional responses to the problem of wife beating. The regulation of domestic affairs in European communities is traced from the fifteenth century to the present. The historical analysis begins with direct and personal responses of members of the community, such as misrules and charivaris, and traces the development of the more abstract and impersonal responses of the state institutions that emerged…
