Selected Bibliography "Childhood Sexual Abuse and Social Constructionism"

[Addendum to GUS, chapter 14] [back]


 

[Compiler's note: These resources (late 1980s to date) converge in the assumption that "abuse", "abuser" and "anti-abuse" categories connote "social constructions". Whether this bias can be called amoral or subversive is beyond the scope of this bibliography. The reader may find that more resources could have been included. Note that dissertation abstracts and previews (1997>) may be obtained via ProQuest Digital Dissertations]
