Politicization of sexual violence : from abolitionism to peacekeeping
Harrington, Carol
The politics of rape was a marginal field until the 1990s when rape suddenly emerged as an international security problem. Carol Harrington traces the historical change in the politicization of rape as an international problem, explaining the fascinating transference of the expert authority gained by early international women's organizations to intergovernmental bureaucracies.
Abstract: Traces the historical change in the politicization of rape as an international problem. This book explains how early international women's organizations gained expert authority on rape by drawing on abolitionist rhetoric of bodily integrity, and why they abandoned their politicization of rape in the inter-war period.
