Drawing on over a thousand cases from a diverse set of courts, Thornberry reconstructs the history of rape in South Africa's Eastern Cape, from the precolonial era to the triumph of legal and sexual segregation, and digs deep into questions of conceptions of sexual consent. Through this process, Thornberry also demonstrates the political stakes of disputes over sexual consent, and the ways in which debates over the regulation of sexuality shaped both white and black politics in this period. From customary authority to missionary Christianity, humanitarian liberalism to segregationism, political claims implied theories of sexual consent, and enabled distinctive claims to control female sexuality. The political history of rape sheds new light not only on South Africa's contemporary crisis of sexual violence, but on the entangled histories of law, sexuality, and politics across the globe. 650 0 $a Rape $z Eastern Cape $z Eastern Cape $x History. 650 0 $a Rape $x History. $z Eastern Cape $z Eastern Cape $x History. 650 0 $a Sexual consent $x History. $z Eastern Cape $z Eastern Cape $x History. 650 0 $a Xhosa (African people) $x History. $z Eastern Cape $z Eastern Cape $x History. 650 7 $a Rape. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01089970 650 7 $a Rape $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921383 651 7 $a South Africa $z Eastern Cape. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01272828 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Ebook version : $z 9781108632447 830 0 $a African studies series ; $v 141. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20200318013050.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F4FB548C0C2C11EAA2E5F95597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
