Sexual Violence
Sexual violence is a multifaceted crime and a global health problem. It is a crime that can happen to anyone, including young and old, male and female, rich and poor. Sexual violence persists due to several variables, including abuse history and a society’s tolerance of the crime. Additionally, belief systems, cultural norms, and legal systems create environments that allow abusers to escape detection.

It also examines the role of social media in facilitating sexual crimes, particularly sex trafficking. Finally, this book examines the work of community stakeholders in addressing and treating individuals who have been sexually victimized and the coping mechanisms of sexually traumatized adult women.

And why is political participation so low among Spaniards? The answers to the first two questions highlight the ambiguity built into the political contrast with the Franco regime and a certain appreciation of the materi...
Fundamentos del patriarcado moderno

La obra de Rousseau constituye un objeto de estudio privilegiado, porque en él coexisten un desarrollo radicalizado de los ideales ilustrados a la vez que una inflexión muy significativa de su filosofía política en un sentido claramente patriarcal.
