The Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence (the Istanbul Convention) was adopted by the Council of Europe and entered into force in August 2014. This Convention constitutes a potentially key development in combating gender-based violence, as it sets new legally binding standards. This book provides an analysis of the Convention and its potential to make an impact on the issue of domestic violence. The book includes comparisons of other regional instruments and institutions concerned with violence against women, and considers whether the adoption of a UN convention on violence against women may be a possible and welcome development.
