This book sheds light on the phenomenon and construction of rape and other forms of sexual violence within the Nordic region, exploring the ways in which rape and sexual violence are dealt with through criminal law and considering governmental policies aimed at combatting it, with a special focus on legal regulations and developments. Thematically organised, it offers new research on perpetrators, victimhood, criminal justice and prevention. Multi-disciplinary in approach, it brings together the latest work from a range of scholars to offer insights into the situation in the five Nordic countries, asking how and why rape and other forms of sexual violence occur, whilst also addressing the timely issues of online sexual cultures, BDSM and the grey areas of sexual offences. As such, it will appeal to scholars of sociology, criminology and law with interests in gender and sexual violence"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aRoutledge research in gender and society. 606 $aRape$zScandinavia 606 $aSex crimes$zScandinavia 610 $aSociology 610 $agender studies 610 $acriminology 615 0$aRape 615 0$aSex crimes 676 $a364.15320948 700 $aBruvik Heinskou$b Marie$4edt$01355986 702 $aHeinskou$b Marie Bruvik 702 $aSkilbrei$b May-Len 702 $aStefansen$b Kari$f1971- 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910346054803321 996 $aRape in the Nordic countries$93360204 997 $aUNINA
