这个评论提供了the first comprehensive analysis of the Council of Europe (CoE) Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence (the Istanbul
Convention). It offers a complete article-by-article guide to the Convention with reference to the explanatory report, the findings of the monitoring body (GREVIO) and relevant State practice.

‘This book provides a masterful overview of the Istanbul Convention, with its article-by-article commentaries, critical assessments of its strength and weaknesses, and comparisons with other
legal regimes to combat violence against women. Taken as a whole, this book clarifies and illuminates, and is a necessary resource for anyone working in this area.’
