Section I: A Country-Specific Focus on Domestic Homicides and Death Reviews -- Chapter 1. An International Comparison of Domestic/Family Violence Death Reviews -- Chapter 2. United States -- Chapter 3. Canada -- Chapter 4. United Kingdom -- Chapter 5. Australia -- Chapter 6. New Zealand -- Section II: Understanding the Challenges, Benefits and Impacts of Domestic Violence Death Reviews -- Chapter 7. Challenges in Defining Domestic Homicide -- Chapter 8. Ethical Conundrums in the Establishment and Operation of Domestic/Family Violence Fatality Reviews -- Chapter 9. The Impact of Family Members' Involvement in the Domestic Violence Death Review Process -- Chapter 10. Indigenous Populations and the Domestic Violence Death Review Process -- Chapter 11.

A Feminist Reflection on Domestic Violence Death Reviews.

This edited collection highlights international research on domestic homicides and death reviews which are a rapidly growing intervention/prevention initiative in various countries. Chapters focus on: the impetus for the international development of such initiatives, the identification of risk factors and recommendations for improving systemic responses, the uptake and impact of these recommendations and, finally, the social and public policy implications of outcomes for developed and developing countries. Despite rapid growth, the current state of research and knowledge about domestic violence death review initiatives is limited, fragmented, and primarily descriptive, largely comprising annual public reports. The authors of this book bridge this significant gap by analysing the wide range of models currently in development and operation. A bold and important examination, this work will have a powerful impact on policy makers and scholars of social science theory, women's studies, and domestic violence.
