Kate Fitz-Gibbon, School of Social Sciences at Monash University and Monash Gender and Family Violence Prevention Centre, Australia. Jude McCulloch, Monash University and Monash Gender and Family Violence Prevention Centre, Australia. JaneMaree Maher, Centre for Women’s Studies and Gender Research, Sociology, Monash University, Australia. Emerald Studies in Criminology, Feminism and Social Change offers a platform for innovative, engaged, and forward-looking feminist-informed work to explore the interconnections between social change and the capacity of criminology to grap- ple with the implications of such change. Social change, whether as a result of the movement of peoples, the impact of new technologies, the potential consequences of climate change, or more commonly identified features of changing societies, such as ageing populations, inter-genera- tional conflict, the changing nature of work, increasing awareness of the problem of gendered violence(s), and/or changing economic and political context, takes its toll across the globe in infinitely more nuanced and inter-connected ways than previously imagined. Each of these connections carry implications for what is understood as crime, the criminal, the victim of crime and the capacity of criminology as a disci- pline to make sense of these evolving interconnections. Feminist analysis, despite its contentious relationship with the discipline of criminology, has much to offer in strengthening the discipline to better understand the complexity of the world in the twenty-first century and to scan the horizon for emerging, possible or likely futures.

  • The Systematic Use of Sexual Violence in Genocide — Understanding Why Women Are Being Targeted Using the Cases of Rwanda and the Former Yugoslavia ! ! !
    ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! The systematic use of sexual violence in genocide — understanding why women are being targeted using the cases of Rwanda and the former Yugoslavia ! ! ! Author: Viktoria Nicolaisen Supervisor: Dr. Minoo Koefoed, Gothenburg University May 29, 2019 ! ! This thesis is submitted for obtaining the Master’s Degree in International Humanitarian Action and Conflict. By submitting the thesis, the author certifies that the text is from her hand, does not include the work of someone else unless clearly indicated, and that the thesis has been produced in accordance with proper academic practices. Abstract When describing sexual violence as a ’weapon of war’ or as systematic in the setting of a conflict, many times there is no distinction between how it is used during different types of conflicts. Moreover, they are often discussed as either a crime against the ”enemy” or a crime against women. This research seeks to describe sexual violence during the genocides of Rwanda and the former Yugoslavia and to find whether there is an underlying genocidal intent. It also aims to emphasize the intersectional nature of such crimes — the targeting of a woman on the basis of both gender and group belonging. ! With the use of books, journal and research articles, reports and interview transcripts — this paper is based on a qualitative research method aiming to describe the underlying intent of the strategic use of sexual violence targeting women in genocide. It is the interpretation of the gathered material and theories which enables the discussion to take form. The genocidal intent behind rapes and sexual violence is not only to use women as reproductive vessels, prevent births within a group and inflict such injuries that would make a woman suffer and become less worthy in her community — but also to humiliate a group through sexual violence in a way that fragments it into elimination.

  • The Body Weaponized
    SDI0010.1177/0967010619895663Security DialogueKirby 895663research-article2020 Special issue on Becoming War Security Dialogue 2020, Vol. 51(2-3) 211 –230 The body weaponized: War, sexual © The Author(s) 2020 Article reuse guidelines: violence and the uncanny sagepub.com/journals-permissions https://doi.org/10.1177/0967010619895663DOI: 10.1177/0967010619895663 journals.sagepub.com/home/sdi Paul Kirby London School of Economics and Political Science, UK Abstract It is today common to argue that rape is a weapon, tool or instrument of warfare. One implication is that armed groups marshal body parts for tactical and strategic ends. In this article, I interrogate this discourse of embodied mobilization to explore how body weaponry has been made intelligible as a medium for sexual violence. First, I show that, despite wide rejection of essentialist models, the penis and penis substitutes continue to occupy a constitutive role in discussions of sexual violence in both political and academic fora, where they are often said to be like weapons, a tendency I term ‘weapon talk’. Second, I trace the image of the body weapon in key threads of feminist theorizing and commentary, to show how the penis has appeared as a ‘basic weapon of force’ in various permutations. Third, I explore the weaponization of the body as it appears in military thought and in the cultural circulation of ideas about the soldiering body in which sexual pleasure and violence are frequently conflated. Building on this foundation, I propose that these literatures collectively describe an uncanny weapon object, and I draw out the significance of this term for feminist security studies and martial empiricism.

  • Issues Surrounding Rape and Sexual Torture of Men in Conflict Situations
    Compromised Masculinities: Issues Surrounding Rape and Sexual Torture of Men in Conflict Situations by Tina A. Sorensen A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Sociology University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2011 by Tina A. Sorensen Abstract This thesis explores media reporting on wartime sexual violence against men, set against commonly-held notions of gender and masculinity, to uncover how male sexual victimization is constructed and discussed. A discourse analysis of several daily newspapers was conducted. Findings show that there was little sustained discussion to analyse; martial sexual violence against men was referred to more often than expected, but descriptions were fleeting and limited in terms of the information provided. An examination of media reporting on female rape during conflicts emerged from this analysis, and we see a clear difference in the way the media reports about sexual victimization of male and female victims. It was concluded that the way in which male and female sexual victimization is reported is influenced and shaped by gender stereotypes, contains gendered language, and contributes to the perpetuation of both male and female rape myths. 1 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my committee members for their assistance and advice, most notably their great effort, and the time they took out of their busy schedules to help me in completing this thesis.

  • Gender Jurisprudence for Gender Crimes?
    GENDER JURISPRUDENCE FOR ICD Brief 20 June 2016 GENDER CRIMES? Laetitia Ruiz www.internationalcrimesdatabase.org ABSTRACT The gendered nature of international criminal courts/tribunals and international criminal and humanitarian law has been widely discussed in feminist literature. However, the idea that international criminal law and the practice of international criminal courts and tribunals could be gendered in a way that does not recognize the harms inflicted upon men has rarely been explored. This paper explores international humanitarian law (IHL), international criminal law (ICL) and the jurisprudence of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) and aims at showing that the international legal order – which normally privileges the male experience of conflict – does not always recognize the harms inflicted upon men. As a result, this paper argues that the jurisprudence of the ICTY communicates a certain idea of gender which may, ultimately, further entrench the norms which lead to the silencing of male sexual victimization. I. INTRODUCTION The main idea directing this paper is not new. Indeed, reflecting on the possibility that international humanitarian law (IHL), international criminal law (ICL) and the practice of international criminal courts and tribunals is gendered has been widely discussed in feminist literature for several decades.1 This body of feminist literature has centered around gender- based crimes committed against women and their lack of recognition in international law along with devising reforms to effect change in the law applied by international criminal courts/tribunals and their practice in prosecuting these crimes. However, examining the pervasiveness of gender norms in these domains in a way that silences or misrecognizes the harm suffered by men in conflict situations has been explored to a much lesser extent and this article intends to shed some light on this issue.

Much of this criticism has focused on horror texts and other texts that depict supernatural monsters. However, the way that monster theory explores the connection between specific cultures and their monsters illuminates not only our understanding of horror texts, but also our understanding of any significant cultural artwork.

  • Sex and Sexuality in Contemporary Female-Authored Spanish Drama
    EROTICIZING THE MARGINS: SEX AND SEXUALITY IN CONTEMPORARY FEMALE-AUTHORED SPANISH DRAMA Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Laurie Lynne Urraro, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Spanish and Portuguese The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Stephen Summerhill, Adviser Elizabeth Davis Rebecca Haidt Copyrighted by Laurie Lynne Urraro 2011 Abstract This dissertation fixes a critical eye on the multiple uses of sex and sexuality in the works of four contemporary Spanish playwrights: Paloma Pedrero, Yolanda Pallín, Yolanda Dorado, and Margarita Reiz. All four authors examine issues of sexuality in their plays with regard to the characters, and demonstrate how these issues are inflected by the body and power. This project specifically seeks to analyze crisscrossed sexes and sexualities at the threshold of the difference between the sexes, as well as the notion of (em)powered bodies as they become manifest through the characters in two plays by each of the four authors. While the approach of each is different, the four playwrights in this study all present sex and the sexual in ways that undo typical, normative, or binarized views of such topics and instead proffer means of consideration that concentrate more on the interstices and slippages between traditional categories or manifestations, and, as such, merit inclusion in this project. The theoretical framework implements postmodern theories of gender and sexuality throughout the entire study, drawing chiefly from Judith Butler, whose theorizations seek to move hegemonic views of sexuality and gender away from the binarized notion of ‗male‘/ ‗female‘ and toward the margins, where much deeper meaning may be derived.
