Reframing sexual violence as "sexual harm" in New Zealand policy : a critique [Book chapter] Nicola Gavey and Jade Farley
Sexual violence in intimacy: Implications for research and policy in global health (Chapter 14) / edited by M. Gabriela Torres, Kersti Yllö. Routledge, 2020
In mid-2017 the Ministry of Social Development announced a small change in policy vocabulary - relabelling sexual violence as "sexual harm". The new term arrived without fanfare, and with little explanation. There had been no formal proposal, no debate and no research to ground and justify the change. The authors are concerned about the potential for mainstreamed use of this term to function in unintended and inadvertently in counter-progressive ways. (From the opening paragraphs). Record #6936
