Abstract

In 1994 Congress passed the Violence Against Women Act. This thesis focuses on Title II which gives remedies to gender motivated crimes at the federal level. Title III received a lot of criticism due to a variety of reasons. This thesis looks at the question of if Title III is an appropriate way of addressing the problem of violence against women, if criticisms of Title II warranted? What revisions should be made?
