Reviews

‘Bringing feminist theory into a conversation with the sociology of emotions, this book provides a vital analysis of the challenges of transformative rape law reform.' Anna Carline, University of Liverpool ‘This book provides a landmark new analysis of rape laws and consent standards that will help shape legal reforms across the world.' Clare McGlynn, Durham University ‘Asking what justice is and can be, this significant book uncovers how professionals confront the perplexing tension between “law"" on the one hand and “legal practice"" on the other.' Kate Rossmanith, Macquarie University “This book offers a comprehensive case study of rape law in action. While the case is in Sweden, the broader relevance is evident. A highly innovative, rigorous and inspirational book!” May-Len Skilbrei, University of Oslo
