| dc.description.notes | This paper analyses the applicability of four crime prevention approaches for ending domestic violence, with specific reference to the Queensland, Australia context. The analysis is based, firstly, on consideration of theories that seek to explain the gendered nature of domestic violence and how understandings of causal factors arising from these theories point to appropriate strategies for intervention. Secondly, the analysis draws on crime prevention theory and assesses the application of current domestic violence prevention strategies that fit with four different approaches from criminology. These four approaches are: criminal justice approaches; situational approaches; community (social) approaches; and developmental approaches. The paper concludes that domestic violence is a complex criminal justice problem and consequently its prevention is a complex matter, requiring multiple approaches. Therefore, there is merit in all four crime prevention approaches being applied simultaneously in response to domestic violence. As some strategies risk having different outcomes for different sections of the community, however, it is important that policies and programs are developed and implemented in ways that maximize equity across the community. Finally, service providers and funding bodies must recognise the need for long-term investment in domestic violence prevention programs. | en |
