International Approaches to Rape gives an overview of rape law and policy in nine different countries, including the United States and Canada. Many governments have begun to take rape more seriously than in the past and have started to implement wide-ranging reforms; this book describes those reforms and assesses the degree to which they have been successful. Introducing readers to various national perspectives on rape, the contributors outline a comparative approach that highlights the similarities and differences between countries, contexts, laws, issues, policies, and interventions.

Industry Reviews

"This important book provides a distinctive comparative overview of progress and the continuing challenges in rape investigation and prosecution, using critical assessments of the current position in individual countries." Jennifer Brown, London School of Economics "The global scope of this book is of enormous importance to the literature on rape law and policy. Taking a clear and jargon-free approach, this is a must-have addition for those interested in where we are now and for future reforms." Helen Jones, Principal Lecturer in Criminology, Manchester Metropolitan University
