Summary:"In the field of victimology, the landscape of victimization is constantly evolving, presenting new challenges and demands. The traditional approaches to understanding and addressing victimization are often inadequate in capturing the complex and nuanced experiences of victims. Furthermore, the justice system and victim support services struggle to keep pace with the changing forms of victimization, leading to gaps in protection and support for victims. There is a critical need for a contemporary approach that comprehensively examines victimization and provides practical insights and solutions for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers.Investigating and Combating Gender-Related Victimization offers a pioneering solution to the challenges posed by modern victimization. By focusing exclusively on qualitative studies, this handbook provides a deep and nuanced understanding of victim experiences, interactions with the justice system, and the impact of victimization. The qualitative approach allows for a more holistic examination of victimization, capturing the emotions, narratives, and coping mechanisms of victims often overlooked in quantitative studies."--
