We live in a moment of renewed and highly visible action on the
issue of sexual violence. Rape culture is a real and salient force
that dominates campus climates and student experiences. Canada has
drafted a national framework, provincial legislation, and
institutional policy to address incidences of sexual violence, and
students have demanded that their universities respond. Yet rape
culture persists on campuses throughout North America. Violence
Interrupted presents different ways of thinking about sexual
violence. It draws together multiple disciplinary perspectives to
synthesize new conceptual directions on the nature of the problem
and the changes that are required to address it. Analyzing survey
data, educational programs, participatory photography projects,
interviews, autoethnography, legal case studies, and existing
policy, contributors open up the conversation to illustrate sexual
violence on campus as a structural, cultural, and complex social
phenomenon. The diversity of methodologies sets this study apart: a
problem as complex and far-reaching as rape culture must be
approached from a multitude of angles. Decades have passed since
student advocates first called for "no means no" campaigns, but
universities are still struggling to evolve. Violence Interrupted
answers the call by bridging the gap between advocacy, research,
and institutional change.
