What is Domestic Violence Criminalization Analysis about?

This document summarizes research on the criminalization of domestic violence over the past 30 years. It finds that while policies of arrest, prosecution, restraining orders, and batterer treatment have advanced due to advocacy efforts, research shows inconsistent effects on reducing repeat victimization and offending. Factors like the complexity of domestic violence, limited deterrent effects of sanctions, and weak integration of violence and domestic violence theories have influenced these mixed results.
