"Policy and legal silos can contribute to reproducing violence and injustice. This brilliantly argued book teaches us how an interdisciplinary lens attentive to practice enables us to see and act across these divides. Its imaginative and unflinching analysis holds to account borders and the social and legal systems that uphold them". Professor Bridget Anderson, Director of Migration Mobilities Bristol, University of Bristol"Segrave and Vasil throw into sharp relief how the everyday border practices of state migration systems allow for and in fact expose women who are temporary visa holders to gendered violences that are simultaneously intimate and structural. Theirs is a vital challenge to expand our ways of listening, researching and accounting for these border violences in order to create accountabilities that can create a better future". Professor JaneMaree Maher, Centre for Women's Studies and Gender Research, Sociology, Monash University"A powerful analysis of the structural inequalities and hidden violence embedded in domestic and family violence systems and migration systems, The Borders of Violence reveals how the state's bordering processes and construction of temporary status facilitate gendered violence, constrain access to protection, and demarcate the very boundaries of belonging - with profound implications for women's safety". Nancy A. Wonders, Professor Emeritus of Criminology and Criminal Justice, Northern Arizona University"In this volume, Marie Segrave and Stefani Vasil skilfully chart the complex terrain of temporary migration and domestic and family violence. Based on rich empirical research and a vast amount of original data, the authors point out to the uncomfortable truth: that nation-states produce and sustain structural harm, and that this maintains the leverage of perpetrators over women within and across national borders. Given the fact that this important issue has so far eluded the scrutiny in the academy, a volume like this one brings the temporary migration-domestic/family violence nexus one step closer to where it must be: at the centre stage in policy, research and public discourse".
