Et voldsfelt i bevegelse : Rettslige virkemidler og institusjonelle ordninger

Abstract

Domestic violence and sexual assault have gradually become prioritized policy areas in Norway. This book examines the legal and institutional aspects of what has also gradually emerged as a separate action area, the field of violence. The field of violence has undergone major changes over time and in general, this development reflects significant investment and progress in the work to combat domestic violence and sexual assault. Nevertheless, the solutions that have been implemented also create new challenges. The chapters in this book shed light on how legal instruments and institutional measures are designed and function, and also explore their various strengths and possible disadvantages.
