Marital rape : consent, marriage, and social change in global context

Yllö, Kersti, (editor.). Torres, M. Gabriela, (editor.).

Summary: 'Marital Rape' presents an analysis of rape in marriage in cross-cultural perspective. Previous scholarship on marital rape has been limited compared with research on battering, acquaintance rape, and child sexual abuse and it is largely US focused. This volume represents the collaboration of an international, interdisciplinary, and intergenerational group of scholars and activists.
