Description

Explore a deep analysis of gender and agency in the award-winning book, Framing the Rape Victim: Gender and Agency Reconsidered. Published by Rutgers University Press, this work won the 2016 Nonfiction Category from The Authors' Zone. Carine M. Mardorossian examines how legal, law enforcement, media, and academic circles treat rape as a distinct type of crime. The text argues that this specific treatment has led to the ghettoizing of sexual violence along gendered lines. It investigates how women are often accused of triggering sexual violence through their behavior, comportment, or perceived weakness. This book provides a serious look at how societal frameworks affect the perception of victims. It is an essential read for those studying violence against women, gender studies, and the legal implications of sexual crime. Gain a better understanding of the social structures that shape these narratives.
