An in-depth treatment in two volumes of the historical and cultural contexts of rape and rape culture, this set discusses both victims and perpetrators internationally during war and peace times and examines the treatment of survivors. Historically, women, men, and children have all suffered sexual violence, during wartime and peacetime as well as inside and outside their homes. This two-volume title focuses on survivors of rape in a variety of social and cultural contexts. It examines different people who are victimized in a variety of situations (including in war and prisons) and studies the particularities of "rape cultures" that are intertwined with ethnic cultures and hatreds and other forms of conflictual social, political, and economic relations. In the introduction, the editors define rape and rape culture and provide historical and cultural context for the information presented throughout the volumes, the first of which primarily focuses on the causes and manifestations of rape cultures; the second considers the consequences of rape cultures for survivors of sexual assault. In both volumes, contributors provide case studies elucidating the experiences of a variety of victims--young, old, male, female, straight, and LGBT--in diverse locations around the world to help readers understand how truly pervasive and portentous rape culture is. Includes case studies on a variety of sexual assault survivors in environments ranging from college campuses to war zones Integrates the expertise of contributors, who include both academics and activists on sexual violence in different parts of the world Represents, through case studies, incidents of rape in countries from Africa to Europe and from Asia to the United States Compares "rape cultures" across the world
