The #MeToo movement sparked many debates and increased the demand for more problematized perspectives on the issue of sexual harassment.

This book opens for new understandings of sexual harassment by bringing researchers, writers, and policymakers in the Nordic region into dialogue in an ambitious volume. It asks what role juridical frameworks can and should play in prevention and raises questions about how the image of Nordic states – as gender equal, colour blind and with strong welfare – affects the work against sexual harassment in the region.

Re-imagining definitions of justice, violence, exploitation and work, this book offers knowledge of immediate importance for everyone working to prevent sexual harassment, through research, policy making, or in everyday practice.

Reviews for Re-Imagining Sexual Harassment: Perspectives from the Nordic Region

"""This collection accomplishes that rare feat of making us feel as well as think. It will change the way you understand the causes and consequences of sexual harassment, as well as what we might do to end it."" Fiona Vera-Gray, London Metropolitan University ""Presenting critical learning about the subtle and nuanced ways of (re)producing violence at work, in society and within the neoliberal state, this book suggests comprehensive approaches and an intersectional lens to inspire individual and collective efforts for social change."" Vilana Pilinkaite Sotirovic, Lithuanian Centre for Social Sciences"
