SPRINGERBRIEFS IN CRIMINOLOGY DOMESTIC VIOLEN...

This brief maps the available data augmented by expert interviews on the impact of the Covid-19
measures on DV in eight European Member States during the first lock-down. The volume addresses
an on-going situation  additionally complicated by renewed lockdown restrictions during autumn
and early winter 2020. It assesses the assumptions of an imminent wave of domestic violence
against reliable data from crime statistics  surveys  and various institutions responding to
domestic violence. Collecting partner country reports from Austria  Finland  France  Germany 
Hungary  Portugal  Scotland and Slovenia  it demonstrates the effects that lockdown measures
starting March 2020 had on reported DV incidents. It considers the differences between each
country with respect to policing  legal systems  social and cultural factors and highlights
best practices to prevent conditions resulting from Covid-19 lockdown undermining victims'
security and frontline responders' capacities to provide services and prevent domestic
violence.
