The first comprehensive book on rape since Susan Brownmiller's Against Our Will and Susan Estrich's Real Rape, this volume probes every aspect of rape law and the discrepancies between ideal law (on the books) and real law (in action). Susan Caringella canvasses the success and failure of reform in the United States, as well as Australia, Britain, Canada, and New Zealand, and assesses alternative perspectives on rape reform, making use of theoretical models, court cases and statistical data. She uniquely delineates a creative model for change while addressing the discretion that undermines efforts at change. This includes charging the accused and plea bargaining, confronting a lack of transparency and accountability in implementing law, and acquiring funding for such changes.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Susan Caringella explores the legal definitions and prosecution of rape, especially date/acquaintance rape, deconstructing the myths and rhetoric used to blame the victim and presenting practical solutions to the problem of rape reform. Drawing on feminist and critical theory in sociology and criminology, as well as conservative and liberal theory in political science, this book assesses alternative models of rape reform, relying on concrete court cases and statistical data and the fascinating revelations of public opinion and attitude studies, which showcase the discrimination and humiliation rape victims face when they go public.
