This is the first critical study of feminist practices of 'speaking
out' in response to rape. This book argues that feminist anti-rape
politics are characterised by a belief in the transformative
potential of women's personal narratives of sexual violence. The
political mobilisation of these narratives has been an incredibly
successful strategy, but one with unresolved ethical questions and
political limitations. The book explores both the successes and the
unresolved questions through feminist archival materials, published
narratives of sexual violence, and mass media and internet sources.
It argues that that a rethinking of the role and place of women's
stories and the politics of speaking out is vital for a rethinking
of feminist politics around sexual violence and key to fresh
approaches to combating this violence.
