The nature of violence in Pacific populations

The nature of violence in Pacific populations Crichton-Hill, Yvonne - 2003 - Te Awatea Review .
Te Awatea Review 1(1) December 2003 : 12-13
This article explores the issue of family violence, and describes the overlap between intimate partner abuse and child abuse. The author identifies that Pacific people have a high rate of violent offending compared to their proportion of the New Zealand population as a whole, and further, have the highest victimisation risk out of New Zealand's differing ethnic populations. A discussion is held around the limitations of identifying people from many areas within the Pacific region as a combined group called 'Pacific peoples'. The author emphasises the need for wider ethnic categories in future research, and identifies that there is a significant dearth of research and statistical information in this area
