Organised Sexual Abuse offers a comprehensive, interdisciplinary
investigation of this phenomenon. Since the early 1980s, social
workers and mental health professionals around the globe have
encountered clients reporting sexual abuse by organized groups or
networks. These allegations have been amongst the most
controversial in debates over child sexual abuse, raising many
unanswered questions. Are reports of organized abuse factual or the
product of moral panic and false memories? If these reports are
true, what is the appropriate response? The fields of child
protection and psychotherapy have been polarised over the issue.
And, although cases of organized abuse continue to be uncovered, a
reasoned and evidence-based analysis of the subject is long
overdue. Examining the existing evidence, and supplementing it with
further qualitative research, in this book Michael Salter
addresses: the relationship between sexual abuse and organized
abuse; questions over the veracity of testimony; the gap between
the policing response to sexual abuse and the realities of child
sexual exploitation; the contexts in which sexually abusive groups
develop and operate; the role of religion and ritual in subcultures
of multi-perpetrator sexual abuse; as well as the experience of
adults and children with histories of organized abuse in the
criminal justice system and health system. Organized Sexual Abuse
thus provides a definitive analysis that will be of immense value
to those with professional and academic interests in this area.
