Conflict-related sexual violence has transitioned from a neglected human rights issue to an unambiguous security concern on the agendas of powerful states and the UN Security Council. Through interviews and primary-source evidence, Crawford investigates the reasons for this change and the implications of the securitization of sexual violence.
