Autorenporträt
Jan Jordan is Emerita Professor of Criminology at Te Herenga Waka - Victoria University of Wellington, Aotearoa New Zealand. She has spent more than three decades researching sexual violence, with the primary aim of making the voices of women silenced by rape heard by those positioned to facilitate their access to justice. Her books include The word of a woman? Police, rape and belief (Palgrave Macmillan, 2004) and Serial survivors: Women's narratives of surviving rape (Federation Press, 2008). Her latest research, funded by a Royal Society of New Zealand Marsden Award, asked why, despite more than 50 years of feminist action against violence, rape prevalence remains so high and rape justice so elusive. Exploring this conundrum has led her to explore the origins of patriarchy and how the mechanisms of silencing and objectification are integral to the maintenance of contemporary rape culture. Tackling Rape Culture: Ending Patriarchy is the second of two books resulting from this research; the first was recently published as Women, Rape and Justice: Unravelling the Rape Conundrum (Routledge, 2022).
