1,575 words (approx. 6.3 pages) | 7 sources | 2006 United States


Paper Summary:

This paper discusses one of the most controversial and compelling legal issues in Canadian society today, spousal abuse and domestic violence. The paper goes on to discuss that while one may note the strong legal prohibitions against this form of violence in Canada today, a closer examination of the relationship between this social problem and the law reveals this approach to be fundamentally simplistic. This essay then argues, that the legal prohibition of spousal abuse and domestic violence has long been honoured more in the breach than the observance given the existence of profound cultural and social boundaries demarcating the family unit from legal intervention.
