Demonstates how refuges and shelters stand at the core of the battered women's movement, and how the movement has challenged the police, courts and social services to provide greater assistance to women in both Britain and the US.
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 institutions of the State as well as salutatory lessons on the nature of diverted and thwarted struggle.
