“…only not green.' This accords with the growing research into female on female violence (Renzetti, 1992;Leventhal and Lundy, 1999) and female on male violence (Mirrlees-Black, 1999;Fitzroy, 2002;McKeowan et al, 2001). Where police apply zero tolerance to both male and female domestic violence, it is clear that women's violence is not necessarily defensive.…”

This article reviews the progress of sixty-eight adults (fifty-two men and sixteen women) on a solution-focused programme aimed at reducing domestic violence. The practice principles are described, using examples of participants' experiences. The outcomes over a three-and-a-half-year period are presented and difficulties in assessing effectiveness of outcomes are discussed. The programmeThe Domestic Violence Programme was originally established in 2001 as a pilot scheme, in conjunction with Kirklees Domestic Violence Forum [now mainstreamed into Kirklees Metropolitan Council Adults and Communities Service and known as the Domestic Violence Team (DVT)]. DVT has well-developed services for women experiencing violence at the hands of male partners but had identified gaps in service provision. There was no specialized refuge provision or therapeutic intervention for gay and lesbian people experiencing violence, no therapeutic provision for women who were violent to their male partners, and no provision for men who had not been through the court process. In addition, a significant number of the women receiving support from DVT expressed dissatisfaction with existing group work programmes for their male partners, most particularly their exclusion from the therapeutic programme and, because of the focus in these groups of men taking full responsibility for their violence, what they perceived as the minimization and denial of their attempts to accept that their behaviour played some part in the violence. The pilot scheme aimed to provide a more flexible

Abstract This paper examines the influence of the real price of beer on violence-related injuries across the economic regions in England and Wales. The data are monthly frequency of violent-injury collected from a stratified sample of 58 National Health Service Emergency Departments 1995-2000. An econometric model based on economic, socio-demographic and environmental factors was estimated using panel techniques. We show that the rate of violence-related injury is negatively related to the real price beer, as well as economic, sporting and socio-demographic factors. The principal conclusion of the paper is that the regional distribution of the incidence of violent injury is related to the regional distribution of the price of beer. The major policy conclusion is that increased alcohol prices would result in substantially fewer violent injuries and reduced demand on trauma services.

“…With apologies to the readers who are not interested in survey methodology the following overview is indispensable in order to appreciate what the CSEW data can or cannot tell us about crime and the CJS experiences and perceptions. It is only an overview -details about the CSEW sampling design, procedures and questionnaire over the years can be found in the respective technical reports (for example, Grant et al 2006;Hales 1993;Hales and Stratford 1997;1999;Hales et al 2000;Kershaw et al 2001;NOP Market Research Limited, 1985;Simmons and colleagues, 2002;White and Malbon, 1995;Wood, 1984) and the ONS User Guides from 2011/12 onwards (available at: http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/guidemethod/method-quality/specific/crime-statistics-methodology/user-guides/index.html (accessed 4 February 2016). Flatley (2014) gives an excellent overview of the CSEW and the survey's impact on British criminological thinking and crime prevention policy.…”

There is a wide range of sources that might fruitfully be used in criminological research. This article overviews the type of evidence used in research that has recently appeared in the British Journal of Criminology, gives examples of unobtrusive administrative data that have been used in recent projects, and focuses on a single data set, the Crime Survey for England and Wales, which covers a wide range of criminological topics. Finally, it will be suggested that criminologists may be missing opportunities to draw on valuable data sets that, though imperfect, may be useful to them in their research.
