Description

In this academic work from the Live Questions in Ethics and Moral Philosophy series, Joan McGregor examines the growing prominence of acquaintance rape in modern discourse. This book provides a detailed analysis of the ethical and legal challenges presented by these cases, moving beyond traditional definitions of sexual assault. McGregor investigates the complexities of consent, autonomy, and power. The text explores how intention and force are defined, while also addressing how responsibility can be impaired by factors such as drugs, alcohol, and mental illness. By looking at the limitations of current criminal laws, which often focus strictly on physical violence and victim resistance, the author proposes a new perspective on how society understands and handles these serious issues. This book is a significant resource for those studying the intersection of law, ethics, and social science. It offers a clear and precise look at the legal frameworks that govern sexual autonomy and the necessity of taking women's consent seriously in a changing social landscape.
