Violence against women & the feminist movement -- Feminism & the state -- Women's anti-violence organisations & the state -- Working to endviolence : staffing the anti-violence movement -- Funding feminist movement organisations working around violence -- Organisation, structure & function ofthe feminist movement -- Working around violence -- Learning to listen to trauma stories : doing research on violence against women.

Violence against women is a salient concern for society and feminismand its impact has long been documented. In the first study of its kind, Lesley McMillan provides a detailed comparative perspective on the women's anti-violence movement in Europe, examining how feminists have responded to gendered violence, how they have sought to organise their response, their achievements and the conditions that have influenced their ability to facilitate change. Placing debates within an international context, McMillan explores whether different states generate different types of collective action,how anti-violence movements negotiate their dual roles as service providers and campaigners for change, whether state funding for service provision compromises the political aspects of anti-violence work, and how far state funding compromises the work ofthe movement. Through a critical appraisal ofthe movement, this studywill inform future strategy for those organizing against violence.
