Gender and Crime in Modern Europe Summary
| This work explores the construction of gender norms and examines how they were reflected and reinforced by legal institutional practices in Europe in this period. Taking a gendered approach, criminal prosecution and punishment are discussed in relation to the victims and perpetrators. This volume investigates various representations of femininity by assessing female experiences including wife-beating, divorce, abortion, prostitution, property crime and embezzlement at the work place. In addition, issues such as neglect, sexual abuse and the "invention" of the juvenile offender are analysed. |
