Domestic Violence and the Domestic Violence Situation within the United States and Russia
Public Deposited<
explain what domestic violence is, why it is an issue and how to prevent it. I will focus a large section of my work on three specific types of violence, types that have not been thoroughly researched by scholars: reproductive, economic, and online violence. After explaining in detail what these forms of violence are, I will use survivor stories to show what is it like for someone to be a victim and how they survived. I will further complicate the essay by examining the problem of domestic violence within two specific countries: the United States and Russia. For both countries I will explain the current domestic violence statistics, current laws and legislative mechanisms, reactions from the government and non-governmental organizations, and what needs to change within each country to provide a better life for those within it. In addition, I will be comparing the United States and Russia, focusing on how the average citizen reacts to the issue of domestic violence. I will then explain my own personal findings based on the research
and conclude my essay by showing how my case study of the United States and Russia is a small sample of an issue that occurs worldwide.
The purpose of my work is to raise awareness and bring attention to a serious societal issue. The more people talk about domestic violence, the more societies can raise awareness, identify abusive conduct, and take legislative action to prevent this harm. Through research, one can learn about what domestic violence victims need, their perspectives on these harmful situations and can develop ways to decrease the likelihood of future abuse within society. This topic was relevant to me due to my studies as both a student of Russian but also a student of Law & Policy. I wanted to use my Russian knowledge in examining a legal issue. Domestic violence is an under researched legal problem. I wanted to further the scholarship on this topic to help bring about a dialogue on changing what is happening in the United States and Russia as well as societies around the world. <
