Sex workers face a high level of violence as well as discrimination and stigma in regard to their profession. This chapter examines how British news media portray female sex workers when they are victims of violent and sexual crimes. The authors used discourse analysis to better understand how the victim,Äôs status is perceived, created, or changed through the reporting of media. Four news organizations were chosen for data collection: Independent, The Guardian, Daily Mail and The Sun. Using an inductive approach, six discourses were found Victim blaming, Labelling, Media sensationalism, Vulnerability, Legitimisation, and Any woman. Nils Christie,Äôs Ideal victim theory provided a framework to discuss the results. While Victim blaming, Labelling and Media sensationalism question the victim,Äôs motive to be in the place of the crime, the activity the victim engaged in, and their responsibility in regard to the victimisation they suffered, Vulnerability and Legitimisation portray the victim as weak, according to the theory. Implications for victims and society are discussed.

Sexual violence is a multifaceted crime and a global health problem. It is a crime that can happen to anyone, including young and old, male and female, rich and poor. Sexual violence persists due to several variables, including abuse history and a society’s tolerance of the crime. Additionally, belief systems, cultural norms, and legal systems create environments that allow abusers to escape detection. This book addresses sexual violence myths, belief systems, and the media’s role in perpetuating sexual violence. It also examines the role of social media in facilitating sexual crimes, particularly sex trafficking. Finally, this book examines the work of community stakeholders in addressing and treating individuals who have been sexually victimized and the coping mechanisms of sexually traumatized adult women.

Das wissenssoziologisch-diskursanalytisch ausgerichtete Buch fragt nach der diskursiven Konstruktion von Sexarbeit und deren Regulierung in Deutschland. Im Fokus stehen Arten und Weisen der Herstellung von Wissen in diesem Debattenfeld, dem immer wieder eine Unmöglichkeit von Evidenz („Dunkelfeld“), eine sehr ausgeprägte Dichotomie von Positionen jenseits etablierter Koalitionen und eine hohe Präsenz von Moral zugeschrieben wird. Die Studie verbindet diskursanalytische und problemsoziologische Perspektiven und untersucht vor diesem Hintergrund empirisch Wissenspolitiken und Wissensformen in der Verhandlung der Regulierung von Prostitution in Deutschland seit Mitte der 1980er Jahre. Einen zeitlichen Schwerpunkt bilden dabei Diskussionen und Prozesse rund um die Einführung des Prostituiertenschutzgesetzes im Jahre 2016. In den Blick genommen wird, wie die Faktizität von Sachlagen zum Phänomen Sexarbeit hergestellt, mit ethisch-moralischen Wertungen versehen und auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen in institutionell-organisatorische Bearbeitungen überführt wird – Prozesse, die durchgehend von Deutungskonflikten, Problematisierungs- und Entproblematisierungsstrategien begleitet werden. Als zentrale wissenspolitische Strategien werden dabei quer zu bestehenden Diskurskoalitionen Binarisierungen, Selbst-, Fremd- und Kontextverortungen sowie vorgenommene Grenzziehungen, eingebrachte Wissensformen und Versuche der Erzeugung von Resonanz näher betrachtet. Dies eröffnet aufschlussreiche Einsichten sowohl in die Komplexität der Aushandlungen wie auch in diejenige der verhandelten Wirklichkeits-Sachverhalte und vermeidet eine sozialwissenschaftliche Dopplung der im Untersuchungsfeld selbst bestehenden Diskursverhältnisse. Die Studie bietet zugleich eine Langzeitperspektive auf Verhandlungen zur staatlichen Regulierung von Prostitution in Deutschland und analysiert das diskursive Handeln politischer Akteur*innen auf verschiedenen Ebenen der politisch-administrativen Auseinandersetzung mit Sexarbeit und deren Regulierung: So werden sowohl die Bundespolitik als auch Landespolitiken und die umsetzende Ebene der Kommunen betrachtet. Empirische Grundlagen sind Dokumente aus der politisch-administrativen Bearbeitung der Regulierung von Prostitution, und Interviews mit zentralen Akteur*innen politischer Auseinandersetzungen um Sexarbeit und deren Regulierung. Das Buch richtet sich sowohl an Leser*innen, die an Diskursforschung interessiert sind als auch an solche, die sich für Sexarbeits- und Prostitutionsforschung interessieren.

'Focusing on key issues, themes and concepts within victimology, this edited collection provides an accessible and comprehensive critical analysis of crucial areas within victimisation. The main theories are related to, and integrated with, empirical research in an engaging style.' - Dr Anette Ballinger, Keele University 'This book achieves the rare feat of helping its readers without patronising them. The aids to the reader - tables, boxes, glossaries, questions, and suggestions for further reading - will prove genuinely helpful to students and their teachers, but they appear within a text that is theoretically informed as well as comprehensive and up to date in its coverage. It deserves to be widely read and used in the teaching of criminology, victimology, and criminal justice' - Professor David Smith, University of Lancaster, UK. Organized around the intersecting social divisions of class, race, age and gender, the book provides an engaging and authoritative overview of the nature of victimisation in society. In addition to a review of the major theoretical developments in relation to understanding aspects of victimization in society, individual chapters explore the political and social context of victimisation and the historical, comparative and contemporary research and scholarly work on it. Each chapter includes the following: - Background and glossary - Theory, research and policy review - `Thinking critically about...' sections - Reflections and future research directions - Summary and conclusions - Annotated bibliography Victims, Crime and Society is the essential text on victims for students of criminology, criminal justice, community safety, youth justice and related areas.

"Sexual assault continues to be a pervasive problem, both for society in general and within the military community. To assist the Air Force in its continued efforts to combat sexual assault within its ranks, we reviewed the existing empirical literature on the characteristics and behaviors of adult perpetrators who commit sexual assault against other adults. Our search was not limited to studies of military populations. While a vast majority of the existing literature has focused on sole male perpetrators who assault female victims, we identified some research on other types of perpetrators, including female sexual assault perpetrators, men who perpetrate assault against other men, and perpetrators who participate in group sexual assault. This body of research indicates that adult perpetrators are diverse in terms of their demographics, background characteristics, and motivations. Moreover, research indicates that sexual assault perpetration is likely influenced by a combination of factors, including an individual's developmental and family history; his or her personality, including attitudes/cognitions; and environmental factors, including peer attitudes and alcohol consumption. The complexity of factors that influence sexual assault perpetration and the multiple pathways that lead to an attack make it difficult to predict whether an individual is prone to commit sexual assault. While predicting sexual assault perpetration is problematic, we identified a number of factors related to perpetration that may be relevant for intervention efforts and offer recommendations for the Air Force"--Publisher's web site.
