This service, termed the ˜special cells, worked in tandem with the police force, and in the past three decades, has been replicated in eight states across India. women survivors of violence is a first-person account of the evolution of the special cells. In the mid-1980s, the author was the first social worker of the uninitiated ˜field action project”working on the issue of violence against women from within the police system. The result was the introduction of special cells in the police system. This narrative traces the 29-year-old journey of this institution, and provides a deeply personal account of the effectiveness of a multi-agency coordinated response to vaw, in the form of a Partnership between an academic Institute, the police system, and the violated woman. This books adds to the limited literature available in India on the processes and lessons learnt from developing and implementing an intervention on vaw. It details the processes of understanding the violated woman and the police; setting up of systems to work with women from within the police system; and engaging with the state as the instrument that can secure the right of women to a safe and secure life. It critically reflects on the learnings of the special cells from the women, police, the state, law, and social Work practices, in the context of the ongoing struggles to respond to violence against women. An informative and deeply important account, this book will be of interest to students and educators in departments of social Work and Womens studies, government personnel, trainers in police academies, and administrators. Those interested in Womens issues will also find it fascinating. . | |
