Summary note
Examines issues surrounding wrongdoing and justice, and sexual violence and rape, among the Acholi people in northern Uganda. Porter offers evidence of a more complicated and nuanced explanation of rape and its aftermath, suggesting a re-imagining of the meanings of post-atrocity justice, whilst acknowledging the role of sex, power and politics in all sexual experiences between coercion and consent. --From publisher description.
