"Research, politics and activism have traditionally emphasized gender in understanding and combating domestic violence. In recent years, however, increasing attention has been placed on other social factors.

This anthology presents new research that elucidates domestic violence from more diverse perspectives. In the nine chapters, the contributors analyze how types and degrees of violence and abuse can vary depending upon the interplay between such different factors as class, ethnicity, gender and sexual orientation. An overarching theme is how we understand and talk about equality, difference and diversity.

The book does not provide an exhaustive analysis of violence in today's multi-cultural Norway, yet it is the first Norwegian book about domestic violence that has diversity as a primary them. The book will be of interest to researchers, students, employees in social services and support organizations and anyone concerned about domestic violence and abuse." - "Forskning, politikk og aktivisme har tradisjonelt vektlagt kjønn for å forstå og bekjempe vold i nære relasjoner. De siste årene har imidlertid andre sosiale dimensjoner fått økt oppmerksomhet.

Denne antologien presenterer ny forskning som belyser vold i nære relasjoner i et mangfoldsperspektiv. I ni kapitler analyserer forskere hvordan voldens art og omfang kan variere basert på et samspill mellom ulike sosiale dimensjoner, som klasse, etnisitet, kjønn, og seksuell orientering. Hvordan vi forstår og snakker om likhet, forskjell og mangfold, er et overordnet tema.

Boken gir ingen uttømmende analyse av vold i dagens mangfoldige Norge, men er den første norske boken om vold i nære relasjoner som har mangfold som hovedtema. Målgruppen er forskere, studenter, ansatte i hjelpeapparatet og andre med interesse for vold og overgrep i nære relasjoner. "

The year 2019 was "the international year of the salmon" (IYS). The overarching aim was "to inform and stimulate outreach and research that aspires to establish the conditions necessary to ensure the resilience of salmon and people throughout the Northern Hemisphere;" further, to bring people together, share and develop knowledge, raise awareness and take action. This article is intended as a contribution to this goal. The article discusses how international law: the Law of the Sea Convention, the Convention on Biological Diversity and the Convention for the Conservation of Salmon in the North Atlantic Ocean relate to conservation and management of wild salmon. The article has a special focus on bilateral cooperation on salmon stocks in boundary/transboundary rivers, and using as a case study the Tana river in Norway and Finland.
