By contrast, many universities and corporations in the United States prohibit sexual relationships across hierarchical lines and sometimes among coworkers, arguing that these liaisons should have no place in the workplace. In this age of globalization, how do cultural and legal nuances translate? And when they differ, how are their subtleties and complexities understood? In comparing how sexual harassment-a concept that first emerged in 1975-has been defined differently in France and the United States, Abigail Saguy explores not only the social problem of sexual harassment but also the broader cultural concerns of cross-national differences and similarities.Sexual harassmentLaw and legislationUnited StatesSexual harassmentLaw and legislationFranceSexual harassmentUnited StatesSexual harassmentFranceElectronic books.Sexual harassmentLaw and legislationSexual harassmentLaw and legislationSexual harassmentSexual harassment344.7301/4133Saguy Abigail Cope1970-1031268MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910449881803321What is sexual harassment2448553UNINA
