Abstract

In this paper, I will discuss sexual violence during conflicts, since this topic still seems underreported, while it has been highly acknowledged that rape occurs widespread during conflicts. More importantly, some crucial elements are still being excluded from the topic of sexual violence during wars, and these thus need to be stressed. This study is solely based on research of literature.
