Domestic Violence Disclosure Schemes (DVDS), recently introduced in many jurisdictions, aim to empower victim-survivors of domestic abuse by giving them access to information about their partner’s criminal history. This paper presents findings from the largest study of the police implementation of the first such scheme, introduced in the United Kingdom in 2014. It finds that the disclosure process is increasingly being shaped by a child protection agenda that makes victim-survivors responsible for protecting their children from the harms of domestic abuse. It examines tensions and dilemmas this raises for police seeking to safeguarding and empower victim-survivors, and draws on feminist ethical theory to develop a more nuanced understanding of the dynamics between the professional spheres of domestic abuse and child protection.

“社会关怀告诉我我必须这样做”：家庭暴力披露计划中的赋权和责任

最近在许多司法管辖区推出的家庭暴力披露计划 (DVDS) 旨在通过让他们获得有关其伴侣犯罪历史的信息来增强家庭暴力的受害者幸存者的能力。本文介绍了 2014 年在英国推出的对警方实施第一个此类计划的最大研究的结果。它发现披露过程越来越受到儿童保护议程的影响，该议程使受害者-幸存者有责任保护他们的儿童免受家庭虐待的危害。它审视了警察寻求保护和授权受害者幸存者的紧张局势和困境，并利用女权主义伦理理论对家庭虐待和儿童保护的专业领域之间的动态有更细致的理解。
