This book provides a conceptual framework for understanding war
rape and its impact, through empirical examination of the case of
Bosnia. Providing a contextual understanding of sexual violence in
war, and situating Bosnian war rape in relation to subsequent
conflicts, the book offers a methodological outline of how sexual
violence in war can be studied from a political-psychological
perspective. It presents empirical findings from the field that
show what war rape can entail in the aftermath of armed conflict
for victims and their communities. Through its comprehensive
approach to Bosnian experiences, the volume expands the
conceptualization of victimhood and challenges the assumption that
sexual violence is a particularly difficult theme to study because
of victim silence. Rather, the author demonstrates there are many
voices that can provide insight and understandings of war rape and
its impact without having to compromise the safety and privacy of
individual victims. Finally, the book shows the ways in which
individual experiences of war rape are shaped by national and
international discourses on gender, sexuality and politics. This
book will be of interest to students of political psychology, war
and conflict studies, European politics, ethnic conflict, politics
and IR in general.
