Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to demonstrate how rape (specifically genocidal rape) and sexual(ised) violence are used as weapons of war. The chapter also considers the relationship between militarised masculinity and sexual violence within and by military institutions. Below, we set up our discussion of these topics with two examples, one from popular culture and one from ‘national security’ political discourse. Please note that some readers might find the content of this chapter upsetting and so you should take your time with the material, take breaks and discuss anything that comes up for you with people you trust.
