Edited by Caitlin Biddolph, Lecturer in International Relations, School of International Studies and Education, University of Technology Sydney, Australia, Jihyun Kim, Postdoctoral Researcher, Asian Center for Women’s Studies, Ewha Womans University, Republic of Korea, Siân Perry, Independent Researcher, UK and Laura J.

‘The first quarter of the twenty-first century has been marked by escalating violence across the world. In the Handbook on Gender and Violence, Biddolph and colleagues foreground an interdisciplinary feminist vocabulary that helps us make sense of the multiple ways in which this violence is gendered. The Handbook is valuable not only as an accessible and wide-ranging academic contribution but also as a resource to cope with, and respond to, contemporary violence.’
