Marital rape stands at the intersection of the socio-legal issues
arising from both domestic violence and sexual assault. For
centuries, women who suffered sexual assault perpetrated by their
spouses had no legal recourse. A man's conjugal rights included his
right to have sexual intercourse with his wife regardless of
whether she consented. This right has been recognised in law, and
still is in some jurisdictions today. This book emerges from the
research undertaken by an innovative, multi-country, academic,
collaborative project dedicated to comparatively analysing the
legal treatment of sexual assault in intimate relationships, with a
view to challenging the legal impunity for and inadequate legal
responses to this form of gendered violence.
