Spaceless violence: concluding thoughts and future steps

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter (Book)Researchpeer-review

Abstract

In this chapter, the authors examine how perpetrators weaponised technologies, considering forms or behaviours that arise. Relationships involve the sharing of information, accounts, and devices that are sacrosanct in traditional security recommendations. Words and codes used for passwords are usually derived from aspects of our lives and identities. Walklate and Fitz-Gibbon wonder if risk assessment and prediction models might be enhanced through technologies, but centre their chapter on the use of technology in information-sharing schemes, in particular, in DFV disclosure schemes in the United Kingdom. Virtual reality has been used in rehabilitation and desistance applications for perpetrators of violence, and in prevention efforts, to promote empathy and recognition of the behavioural and psychological effects of violence for a non-offender cohort.
