dc.description.abstract | In this chapter, we describe the extent of and trends in homicide between intimate partners and synthesize the empirical evidence available on motives and risk factors. We then present two case studies that illustrate some common dynamics of partner homicide and discuss society's responses to the problem. A major emphasis is on differences in rates, trends over time, and motives for homicides by women and men perpetrators. We use the terms partner or intimate partner homicide throughout to mean homicides occurring between current or former dating, cohabiting, commonlaw, and married heterosexual couples. An enhanced understanding of the dynamics of homicide between intimate partners may prove useful for preventing it in future generations. | en_US |
