This fully revised and expanded second edition provides a comprehensive and authoritative overview of the latest research in the field of gender and violence.

Divided into five distinct parts, this new edition includes additional sections on structural and institutional violence and responses to gendered violence. The specially commissioned 44 chapters delve into key issues and debates surrounding different forms of violence and abuse, examining how these are framed by gender, power and intersectionality. Space has been created for new authors and their research, and to document changes in legislation and the ways in which different violences are named, understood, institutionalised, contextualised and prioritised. Offering a diversity of perspectives, with authors spanning criminology, social policy, sociology, geography, health, media and law, alongside activists and members of third sector organisations, this edition aims to highlight that gendered violence is both an age-old and continuing social problem.

By providing an up-to-the-minute snapshot of current scholarship as well as signposting many fruitful avenues for future research, this handbook will be an invaluable resource for scholars and an indispensable teaching tool in the classroom. It will also be of interest to students, academics, social workers and other professionals working to end gender-based violence.

Nancy Lombard is Professor in Sociology and Social Policy at Glasgow Caledonian University, UK. She is the author of Younger People's Understandings of Violence Against Women, (Routledge, 2015), and Violence Against Women: Current Theory and Practice in Domestic Abuse, Sexual Violence and Exploitation (with L. McMillan, 2013). She is a recognised authority on the analysis of children's understanding of violence against women, with her research findings used as an evidence base for the Scottish Government's prevention strategy. She currently researches criminal and civil responses to domestic abuse.
