Arresting Abuse: Mandatory Legal Interventions, Power, and Intimate Abusers
Keith Guzik
A study of the effects of mandatory arrest and no-drop prosecution on offenders. It argues that the promise for defeating intimate partner abuse lies in better matching the tactics of state power to the goals of victim empowerment and offender responsibility and to exercise such force through mechanisms that do not exacerbate social inequality.
