With analytical clarity and narrative force, <i>The Feminist and the Sex Offender</i> contends with two problems that are typically siloed in the era of #MeToo and mass incarceration: sexual and gender violence, on the one hand, and the state’s unjust, ineffective, and soul-destroying response to it on the other.
Is it possible to confront the culture of abuse? Is it possible to hold harm-doers accountable without recourse to a criminal justice system that redoubles injuries, fails survivors, and retrenches the conditions that made such abuse possible?<br><br>Drawing on interviews, extensive research, reportage, and history, <i>The Feminist and the Sex Offender</i> develops an intersectional feminist approach to ending sexual violence.
It maps with considerable detail the unjust sex offender regime while highlighting the alternatives we urgently need.
