This book examines the principal events, actors, and paradigms in the politics of rape, sexual assault, and harassment since the election of Donald Trump. Unlike other studies, it connects these traumatic events to women's underrepresentation in the public sphere. Chapters consider the power of presidential speech, judges, and Congress to create structural barriers to women's representation as well as the effects of weak college and university responses to sexual violence.
