abstract="This article explores the way in which immigration status interacts with domestic violence/woman battering in the lives of immigrant women in multicultural societies such as the USA, Australia, Germany and Israel. It reviews the reasons immigrant women are particularly vulnerable to battering, and discusses the reasons they stay with the batterers, avoid reporting the abuse to law enforcement authorities, and under-utilise social services. The article concludes with the implications of these issues for criminal justice policy and research.Keywords:Woman battering, immigration, patriarchy, interpreters, reporting to police<p />",
