Summary
Stalking is a relatively new "crime". This report investigates the social and legal attempts to deal with a crime that incorporates such diverse realms as psychiatric disorders, gender relations and everyday social interaction. The primary policy recommendation of the report is that the range of available responses to stalking needs to be expanded. Appropriate interventions require the co-operation of the different stakeholders and should be based upon a sound understanding of the different types of stalking behaviours, the potential for violence, and the detrimental impact of these behaviours upon victims
