abstract="European policy approaches to feminist issues in general, and to violence against women in particular, are diverse, based on differing socio-cultural and political traditions, but they also are oriented increasingly to international agreements. Based on data derived from monitoring the implementation of a comprehensive Recommendation adopted in 2002 by the Council of Europe, the author describes a process of convergence in policy, while a variety of legal frameworks and institutional cultures continue to shape the actual measures of implementation differently. Even within the differences, however, larger patterns can be discerned. The paper uses the concept of Europe-as-project and frames the research as a process of formative evaluation with a multi-method approach. Data collection is continuing and the results are preliminary.<p />",
