Abstract

Domestic violence has not been traditionally awarded a high priority by the police in the United Kingdom. Research has shown that the service provided by the police is often regarded by victims as unsatisfactory. The concerns of victims usually extend beyond the criminal justice system. A research study was funded by the Home Office as part of the Safer Cities Project to consider the setting up of an inter‐agency response to domestic violence in Hull, North Humberside. This article outlines the research findings in respect of the policing of domestic violence by Humberside Police with emphasis on the policy changes in the Home Office Circular (60/1990).

家庭暴力的监管——一项实证研究

在英国，家庭暴力历来没有被警方列为高度优先处理的问题。研究表明，受害者往往认为警察提供的服务不能令人满意。受害者的关切通常超出了刑事司法系统。作为“更安全城市项目”的一部分，内政部资助了一项研究，该研究旨在考虑在北亨伯赛德郡赫尔市建立一个跨机构应对家庭暴力的机构。本文概述了亨伯赛德郡警方管理家庭暴力的研究结果，重点介绍了内政部通告(60/1990)中的政策变化。
