| description | The issue of domestic violence, whose recognition and treatment varies from nation to nation, is an important public policy concern. Global and regional influences play a significant role in shaping national law-making processes related to domestic violence. With the global recognition of the severity of domestic violence, many countries have classified it as a criminal offence. Domestic abuse is now considered a criminal offence in many nations as a result of worldwide awareness. However, Bangladesh has long ignored it as a policy issue. Bangladesh has only recently started addressing domestic violence as a policy matter. The research investigates the impact of local, regional, and transnational factors on the development of policies addressing violence against women, transforming it from a personal issue to a public problem and from a civil issue to criminal conduct. The study uses a descriptive phenomenological approach and feminist theory to investigate how domestic violence gains attention from policymakers in Bangladesh. It analyses the influence of local, regional, and global factors in shaping policies addressing violence against women in Bangladesh and explores the transformation of domestic violence from a private matter to a public concern. |
