In contemporary Australia inter-personal violence (such as domestic violence, the abuse of children, Aboriginal deaths in custody, the Cronulla riots) occupies intense media and public interest. Governmental responses to violence (through policing or the courts) themselves rest on the exercise of authorised and regulated control which itself may be considered a form of violence. In examining the historical changes in violence, its social impact and media resonances, and the public policy responses to it, this research seeks to contribute to contemporary understanding of these important questions on the basis of a greater appreciation of the specifically Australian history of these phenomena.

在当代澳大利亚，人与人之间的暴力(如家庭暴力、虐待儿童、土著人在拘留期间死亡、克罗努拉骚乱)引起了媒体和公众的强烈关注。政府对暴力的反应(通过治安或法院)本身有赖于行使授权和受管制的控制，这种控制本身可被视为一种暴力形式。通过考察暴力的历史变化、其社会影响和媒体共鸣，以及对暴力的公共政策反应，本研究试图在更多地了解澳大利亚对这些现象的具体历史的基础上，有助于当代对这些重要问题的理解。
