About the Webinar
Alarming sexual and gendered violence against women has led the state to lay impetus on the incarceration of the offenders.
Carceral Feminism is a critical term for a style of feminism that frames criminalization as the response to sexual violence. ‘Harsher and longer sentences’ for perpetrators are seen as the potent way to respond to sexual violence.
Carceral Feminism banks on punishing the individual via the state judicial apparatus for crimes that reflect a larger systemic and social problem. It operates under the assumption that violence is caused by individuals in isolation and that the punishment of these individuals will lead to greater safety for women.
