摘要：In the past five years, in the US, Canada, the UK, NZ and Australia, we have witnessed an expansion of government policy and program initiatives directed at preventing sexual violence before it occurs. Nicola Henry and Anastasia Poweirs edited collection, Preventing Sexual Violence: Interdisciplinary Approaches to Overcoming a Rape Culture, is the first to critically question and examine such policies. The collection draws together a unique group of international scholars from diverse interdisciplinary perspectives incorporating a broad range of theoretical frameworks. The book lays down a challenge to governments, primary prevention practitioners, educators and the public generally: take nothing for granted in striving to develop and improve best practice prevention policies that work.
