Until recently, higher education in the UK has largely failed to
recognise gender-based violence (GBV) on campus, but following the
UK government task force set up in 2015, universities are becoming
more aware of the issue. And recent cases in the media about the
sexualised abuse of power in institutions such as universities,
Parliament and Hollywood highlight the prevalence and damaging
impact of GBV. In this book, academics and practitioners provide
the first in-depth overview of research and practice in GBV in
universities. They set out the international context of ideologies,
politics and institutional structures that underlie responses to
GBV in elsewhere in Europe, in the US, and in Australia, and
consider the implications of implementing related policy and
practice. Presenting examples of innovative British approaches to
engagement with the issue, the book also considers UK, EU and UN
legislation to give an international perspective, making it of
direct use to discussions of 'what works' in preventing GBV.
The 1998 Rome Statute, the treaty establishing the International
Criminal Court (ICC), includes a longer list of gender-based crimes
than any previous instrument of international criminal law. The
Statute's twentieth anniversary provides an opportunity to examine
how successful the ICC has been in prosecuting those crimes, what
challenges it has faced, and how its caselaw on these crimes might
develop in future. Taking up that opportunity, this book analyses
the ICC's practice in prosecuting gender-based crimes across all
cases for war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide in the
ICC up until mid-2018. This analysis is based on a detailed
examination of court records and original interviews with
prosecutors and gender experts at the Court. This book covers
topics of emerging interest to practitioners in this field,
including wartime sexual violence against men and boys, persecution
on the grounds of gender and sexual orientation, and sexual
violence against 'child soldiers'.
Editedby Rosemary Gray Here is a book no Christmas stocking should
be without, a book that positively distils the spirit of the
season. The title poem, familiar to children and adults the world

to provoke laughter and sometimes to bring a sentimental tear to
the driest eye, this festive treasure trove is ideal for reading
aloud or curling up with in a comfy corner. Scrooge himself would
have found it difficult to resist distributing copies on Christmas
morning!
