Greenwich Campus

Queen Anne, Room 180

^{Join us on for the book launch of Consent: Gender, Power and Subjectivity as the co-editors, Professor Roisin Ryan-Flood and Dr Laurie James-Hawkins, present the important project that challenges the often overly simplistic, narrow and binary definitions of consent. The book examines the concept of consent in different contexts with the aim of exploring the nuances of what consent means to different people and in different situations.}

^{Hear from the four of the contributors behind the book as they share insights on consent.}

• ^{Alex Fanghanel: Revealing the problematic use of consent in murder cases involving claims of rough sex gone wrong.}
• ^{Chrissie Rogers: Presenting the lives of criminalized disabled men and asking "no means no, but do we need to understand what has gone wrong"}
• ^{Ej-Francis Caris-Hamer: Challenging cultural norms regarding young peoples' agency over names and pronouns.}
• ^{Helen Rand: Unravelling how consent is used in the political and legal frameworks surrounding sex work and trafficking for sexual exploitation.}

^{The evening offers to be an informative, thought-provoking and engaging discussion on consent, thinking about how it is used in legal settings, as a political tool, within education, and in sexual situations.}
