GLJ Special: Sexual Violence and Criminal Justice in the 21st Century (GLJ 22:5)

  • Summary

  • Over the last years, mass protests against sexualized violence against women have led to law reform in many countries. They were sparked by shocking rape cases as well as #MeToo and similar campaigns. The Istanbul Convention provides an international framework for what is sometimes called "carceral feminism." Time to take stock and to evaluate the impact of the consent paradigm, the influence of social movements, and the limits of criminal law, both at the national and the international level. Listen to Boris Burghardt and Leonie Steinl as they talk about their Special Issue "Sexual Violence and Criminal Justice in the 21st Century," how they collected contributions from around the world and from different disciplines, what insights they took away from this, and what their next projects are. And of course, find out who would play Boris in a movie and what Leonie would have done instead of becoming an academic! The Special Issue appeared in August 2021 in GLJ 22:5. GLJ editor Nora Markard is the host, editing by Marlene Stiller.
