More DescriptionThe second volume to come out of a South Asia wide research project entitled Sexual Violence and Impunity (supported by the International Development Research Centre, Canada) this book focuses on India and showcases new, pathbreaking research on the subject. For the first time in recent history, young and established scholars come together to explore areas such as medical protocols, the functioning of the law, the psycho-social making of impunity, histories of sexual violence such as in Kashmir and the northeast of India, the media, sectarian violence, the use of stripping and parading and much more. Peer discussed and reviewed in a series of workshops, the essays here present much that is new in research.
