Excellent- More about Between Systems and Violence: State-Level Policy Targeting Intimate Partner Violence in Immigrant and Refugee Lives
Between Systems and Violence examines state-level statutes that target intimate partner violence in immigrant and/or refugee lives, analyzing their legal language and discussing implications for research, prevention, intervention, and public policy.

Between Systems and Violence is a comprehensive compilation and analysis of state-level statutes that specifically target intimate partner violence (IPV) within the lives of immigrant and/or refugee (IMR) individuals. The book delves into the legal language of these statutes through various theoretical lenses, while also engaging in a thoughtful discussion of their implications for research, prevention, intervention, and public policy.
It is important to note that some IMR victim-survivors of IPV, particularly those who are undocumented, may find themselves caught in a complex web of systems and violence. In this context, violent partners may exploit the immigration system as a means of power and control, further exacerbating the victim-survivor's vulnerabilities. While protections are indeed available for these victim-survivors, the broader legal landscape surrounding IPV in the IMR community remains incomplete and primarily governed by federal law.
This book is of immense value to graduate students, scholars, and practitioners alike. It offers a deep and insightful understanding of this critical nexus, enabling individuals to better comprehend the complexities and challenges faced by IMR victim-survivors of IPV within the legal framework. By exploring the legal dimensions of this issue, Between Systems and Violence contributes to the ongoing efforts to promote justice, safety, and well-being for all individuals affected by IPV, regardless of their immigration status or background.
