Male Rape is a Feminist Issue

Feminism, Governmentality and Male Rape

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book seeks to problematize knowledge and practices regarding 'male rape' and its relationship to feminism, examining this issue from a Foucauldian perspective. Feminist constructions of 'male rape' can plausibly be claimed to operate as a 'regime of truth', but one must question whether this is running counter to patriarchy.
