Sexuality after War Rape

This book examines the experiences of women who were sexually abused during the break-up of the former Yugoslavia, addressing their sexuality and challenging the stereotypical images of survivors that have so far prevailed in academic and public discourse. Methodologically innovative, it draws on the narratives of advocates, scholars and different social stakeholders, together with new theatre-based methodologies to question the processes of re-victimization that can follow fieldwork with survivors. Introducing the foundations of applied drama as a research approach in this field, the author reveals its capacity to express a range of ethnographic and case study research findings.
