In this thoroughly revised second edition, expert researchers from a range of disciplines interrogate the relationship between gender and violence. Divided into three thematic sections covering concepts, representation and contexts, this Handbook connects micro-level interpersonal violence to macro-level structural forms.
Including both new and updated chapters, the contributors analyse varied demonstrations of gender violence as well as the inequalities exacerbated by economic influences, climate change and settler colonialism. They assess intersectionality, race and sexualities across diverse economic and juridical backgrounds, elaborating on the tools used in discussions of gendered oppression. The Handbook incorporates a representational focus on the display of gender violence in popular culture, films, news media and photography. Contributors provide transnational perspectives, exploring the connection of gender and violence to various contemporary issues including the military, post-conflict settings, social movements and criminal justice.
Multidisciplinary in scope, this Handbook is a vital resource for scholars and students of gender studies, development studies, international relations, sociology and human rights. It is also of interest to researchers new to the area for its in-depth overview of the topic.

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. -- Soumita Basu, South Asian University, India This fully updated second edition of the Handbook on Gender and Violence is a brilliant and urgent work bringing together some of the leading scholars in the field. Now including a closing chapter that demonstrates the imperative of continuing to study gender and violence to resist the contemporary backlash, the Handbook offers powerful tools to build feminist knowledge and solidarities. -- Kirsten Ainley, The Australian National University, Australia Unequal social relations produce varying forms of gendered violence that unevenly but relentlessly affect all of our lives. This revised edition provides an excellent, intersectional and wide range of relevant studies, including its stand-out contribution: up-to-date and urgently needed research showing how the escalation of misogynistic authoritarianism and the explosion of powerful yet unregulated social media intensify old and produce new forms of gendered violence. -- V. Spike Peterson, University of Arizona, USA
