{"product_id":"violence-against-women-hate-and-kim-barker-9783030993740","title":"Violence Against Women, Hate and Law: Perspectives from Contemporary Scotland","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book presents the first academic study offering a holistic assessment of violence against women (VAW) in Scotland, both online and offline. In particular, it focuses on VAW, hate crime, and online forms of violence against women (OVAW). It critically assesses the gaps in the hate crime protections in Scots Law, focusing specifically on the absence of legal protections for VAW, OVAW, hate crime, and gender-based violence, and it includes international comparisons throughout. Given the current upsurge in the abuse of women, this book offers a holistic assessment of the phenomenon of VAW and makes the case for pressing law reform in Scotland, specifically for legal protections against VAW and OVAW to be included within Scots Law. The book contains not only research findings but also makes practical recommendations for law and policy reform in the areas of hate crime, VAW and OVAW. As such, it contributes to Scotland's progressive and leading approach to tackling violence against women and girls.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kim Barker, Olga Jurasz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030993744\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030993740\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/14\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 310\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.75d","brand":"Kim Barker","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44069272846591,"sku":"9783030993740","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_823c39eb-ea69-4619-a667-d8629a36acae.jpg?v=1685423800","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/violence-against-women-hate-and-kim-barker-9783030993740","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
