micdotcom:China finally passes a domestic violence lawOn Dec. 27, China’s legislature approved the country’s first national anti-domestic violence law. The law defines domestic violence as, “physical, psychological and other harm inflicted by family members with beatings and verbal threats.” It allows victims to file for a personal protection order, which would require an accused abuser to move out, as well as a court to rule on the case within 72 hours.
