This book offers a timely and detailed exploration and analysis of
key contemporary issues and challenges in child sexual abuse, which
holds great relevance for scholarly, legal, policy, professional
and clinical audiences worldwide. The book draws together the best
current evidence about the nature, aetiology, contexts, and
sequelae of child sexual abuse. It explores the optimal definition
of child sexual abuse, considers sexual abuse in history, and
explores new theoretical understandings of children's rights and
other key theories including public health and the Capabilities
Approach, and their relevance to child sexual abuse prevention and
responses. It examines a selection of the most pressing legal,
theoretical, policy and practical challenges in child sexual abuse
in the modern world, in developed and developing economies,
including institutional child sexual abuse, female genital cutting,
child marriage, the use of technology for sexual abuse, and the
ethical responsibility and legal liability of major state and
religious organisations, and individuals. It examines recent
landmark legal and policy developments in all of these areas,
drawing in particular on extensive developments from Australia in
the wake of its Royal Commission Into Institutional Responses to
Child Sexual Abuse. It also considers the best evidence about
promising strategies and future promising directions in enhancing
effective prevention, intervention and responses to child sexual
abuse.
