    Domestic violence against women remains a serious problem in China, with over a quarter of married women experiencing repeated abuse and an estimated 30% of Chinese households dealing with domestic violence. While China's 2016 Domestic Violence Law has helped address the issue, critics argue the legislative protections are still insufficient and the law should be revised to better protect women's interests and prohibit domestic violence.

    Introduction:

    Domestic violence can occur regardless of race, age, religion or gender, and

    Domestic violence against women is especially serious and vulnerable. Domestic

    abuse is still thriving in China. According to a study by United Nations women in

    China, more than a quarter of wedding women who have experienced domestic

    violence more than one time, but experts say the figure is much higher - up to 40%.

    And there are more detailed data in the survey conducted by the All-China

    Women's Federation which shows that about 30% of China's 270 million

    households have domestic violence. 1 Interestingly, some people argue that we can

    deal with this issue easily just via the Domestic Violence Law, the countrys

    landmark first bill against domestic violence, passed by the government in 2016. I

    would argue that the law indeed has a positive effect on anti-domestic violence

    against women, but the government should revise the current law to protect

    womens interest and prohibit domestic violence because the legislative protection

    is not enough.
