Two new (german language) publications on Domestic Violence by members of the VICESSE team are available in the current edition of juridikum - zeitschrift für kritik | recht | gesellschaft.

Marion Neunkirchner & Hannah Reiter address the the topic of Domestic Violence in the context of the value and necessity of its legal definition(s).

Neunkirchner, M. and Reiter, H. (2022) ‘Häusliche Gewalt. Eine rechtliche Definitionsfrage?’, zeitschrift für kritik | recht | gesellschaft, (2), pp. 240–251. Available at: https://doi.org/10.33196/juridikum202202014101.

Paul Herbinger poses the hypothesis, that the proliferation of risk-assessment tools in multi-sectoral responses to Domestic Violence, may be the result of attempts to overcome specific structural shortcomings in different interventions, beyond and instead of the tool’s intended function of risk-prognoses.

Herbinger, P.L. (2022) ‘Im Schatten der Hochrisikofälle. Zum Verhältnis von Risikoeinschätzungsinstrumenten und den Grenzen der Interventionen bei häuslicher Gewalt’, zeitschrift für kritik | recht | gesellschaft, (2), pp. 260–269. Available at: https://doi.org/10.33196/juridikum202202014101.
