Description
INTRODUCTION There are two key areas in 'violence in families' policy that are central to much social work practice either directly or indirectly. These are 'domestic violence' or 'violence against women' and 'child abuse'. The historical emergence of domestic violence and child abuse as public policy issues, that is concerns of the state, are closely linked to the struggles of the women's movement and, to a lesser extent, the children's or human rights movement.
