This event will feature a short lecture by Professor Joanna Bourke, who will explore rape as a historical phenomenon, examining how its understanding has evolved over time and across different cultural and social environments. She will discuss how history can help us comprehend the roots of sexual violence today and reflect on broader societal constructions of will, consent, and agency. Her analysis critically examines the binary victim-perpetrator framework while addressing intersectional factors that shape experiences of sexual violence.
