Guardian column: Cornell case exposes rape-prone society
Original: We live in a rape-prone society. The horrific Cornell case reveals what that looks like
The Guardian has published a column arguing that the horrific Cornell case is not an isolated outrage but a symptom of a rape-prone society. It contends that public demands to punish the alleged perpetrators miss the point, and that the only real solution lies in political, legal and cultural equality for women. The piece is prompting debate about systemic causes of sexual violence rather than individual punishment alone.
Why now: The Cornell case has sparked public outrage and renewed debate about whether sexual violence is a systemic societal problem rather than a matter of individual criminality.
