- catalog abstract ""Frances Heidensohn takes a fresh look at gender and social control, taking account of the new sociologies of risk and globalization." "Risk, insecurity, gender and victimization are the subject of ongoing debate. Teenage pregnancy, domestic violence, the supposedly growing aggression of young women are all new aspects of familiar social issues. Distance and difference are said to be so reduced that we live in a world where globalization has altered communities and social control in irrevocable ways. This provocative and challenging book proposes solutions to some of these problems, draws parallels with the past, and points to lessons to be learned for the future." "Sexual Politics and Social Control is recommended reading for students, professionals and researchers in the fields of criminology, gender studies, sociology, politics and social policy."--BOOK JACKET.".
