Description

Histories of sex crime generally ignore boys. Structured around the concept of knowledge, this book untangles complex and contradictory ideas around age, class, sexuality and ethnicity, to show how these discourses shaped the prosecution and protection of boys in England and Australia between 1870 and 1930. The book contributes to contemporary debates about child sexual abuse, exploring a timely question of interest to historians, legal theorists, and professionals. It historicises current discussions around youth sexuality, and sexual abuse, questions preconceptions and challenges stereotypes, and introduces new themes into the historiography.
