Such attention was unimaginable forty years ago when feminists in Victoria and across Australia first established women's refuges. At that time, domestic violence was not publicly acknowledged or tackled in any coherent way at a Commonwealth or state government policy level. While services that provided accommodation to women and children in crisis had certainly existed for a long time, the refuge movement of the 1970s made explicit the link between domestic violence and the need for refuge, framing domestic violence as a manifestation of gender inequality and an imbalance of power between men and women. This book illuminates how the women's domestic violence services movement in Victoria emerged, how members organised amidst diversity and worked towards achieving their goals, made sense of their experiences and dealt with the obstacles they encountered while undertaking action to create significant change for women. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Feminism|zAustralia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008120362|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Women|zAustralia|xSocial conditions.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008113619 650 0 Victims of family violence|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh90006067|zAustralia|zVictoria.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79046608-781 650 7 Feminism.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/922671 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Women.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1176568 650 7 Social conditions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919811 650 7 Victims of family violence.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/1166326 650 7 Feminism.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0000437 650 7 Women's movement.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/ homoit0000438 650 7 Women.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001509 650 7 Womyn.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001516 651 7 Australia.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204543 651 7 Victoria.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1205049 653 Australian 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 Murray, Suellen,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2003032298|eauthor. 700 1 Smart, Judith,|d1950-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2010179753|eauthor. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=2232217|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
