A history of domestic violence in Australia, 1850-2020

该项目的目的是调查不同种族、文化和阶级背景下妇女遭受家庭暴力的生活经历的相似性和差异;将其文化表现形式及其影响历史化;并确定和评估限制家庭暴力的政策和法律的措施。其重要性在于其目标是解决澳大利亚的一个持续威胁。预期成果是澳大利亚家庭暴力史的第一本书，文章，直接部门参与和建立未来研究能力的数字数据库。其预期的好处是进行新的分析，帮助决策者、服务提供者、媒体和公众了解塑造澳大利亚两性关系的历史进程。

The project aims to investigate similarities and differences in women's lived experiences of domestic violence across ethnic, cultural and class contexts; to historicise its cultural representations and their impacts; and to identify and assess policy and legal measures to constrain domestic violence. Its significance lies in its goal to address a persistent threat in Australia. Expected outcomes are the first book-length history of domestic violence in Australia, articles, direct sector engagement and a digital database to build future research capacity. Its anticipated benefit is new analysis that assists policy makers, service providers, the media and public to understand historical processes that have shaped Australian gender relations.
