책소개

이 책은 성폭력과 페미니즘을 이론적, 경험적, 실천적인 세 가지 관점에서 다루고 있다. 1부에서는 한국에서 페미니즘의 이론적 기초와 역사적 배경을 고찰하고, 2부에서는 ‘폭력의 피해자로서 여성’에 대해 경험적 문제들을 구체적으로 고찰한다. 실천적 문제를 다룬 3부에서는 ‘변화의 주체로서 여성’에 초점을 맞추고 있다. 이 책은 1990년대와 2000년대 사이에 집필되었으며, 한국의 성폭력과 페미니즘 경험을 바탕으로 이론과 현실, 학술 연구와 사회운동 사이의 관계에 관심을 집중시킴으로써 동서양 학자들 간의 대화를 시도하고 있다.
이 전자책은 한국에서 성폭력과 페미니즘에 대한 연구가 시작되고 붐을 이루었던 1990년대와 2000년대의 중요한 시기를 재조명하기 위해 출간했다.

This book deals with sexual violence and feminism from three different standpoints, theoretical, empirical and practice-oriented. The first part of this book is concerned about theoretical underpinnings as well as historical background of feminism and Korea while the second part examines concrete empirical problems of “women as victims of violence.” Addressed to practical issues, the third part focuses on “women as agency of change.” Written during the 1990’s and 2000’s, and mostly based on the Korean experience of sexual violence and feminism, this book is intended to pursue a dialogue between the Eastern and Western scholars by sensitizing our attention to the relationship between theory and women’s reality or between academic research and social movement.
This ebook edition is published to reilluminate the important periods of 1990’s and 2000’s when researches on sexual violence and feminism began and boomed in Korea.

서울대 영문과를 졸업하고 서울대 대학원 사회학과에서 석사학위를 받은 뒤 미국 서던일리노이대학에서 비판범죄론으로 박사학위를 받았다. 독일 빌레펠트대학과 영국 옥스퍼드대학에서 박사후연구(1981~1982)를 했고, 뉴욕 컬럼비아대학(1991~1992)과 중국 베이징대학(2002~2003, 2010)에서 안식년을 가졌다. 1983년 이후 한양대에서 가르치면서 한국형사정책연구원(1989~1991)에 파견되어 성폭력, 성희롱에 대한 연구조사를 국내 최초로 실시했다. 이는 1990년대 성평등 운동, 가정폭력, 성폭력 추방 등 입법활동과 함께 여성운동의 토대가 되었다. 이런 배경에서 한국여성학회장, 평화를 만드는 여성회 공동대표, 민주평통 여성위원장, GPPAC 동북아지역 코디네이터 등을 역임했고 현재 한양대 명예교수이자 공익법인 (재)중민재단 상임이사로 있다.

Young-Hee Shim graduated from Seoul National University and got her Ph.D in sociology from Southern Illinois University. She had her post-Doctoral Research in Bielefeld University in Germany and Oxford University in the United Kingdom (1981~1982), and her Sabbatical at Columbia University in New York (1991~1992), and at Peking University in Beijing (2002~2003, 2010). She conducted many survey researches on sexual violence, domestic violence, adultery and sexual morality, and abortion, among others, while working at Korean Institute of Criminology (1989~1991). Then, while teaching at Hanyang University, she was dispatched to the Korean Institute of Criminology in 1989 to conduct a nation-wide victimization survey on sexual violence and sexual harassment, a first for Korea. This, along with her researches on issues such as gender equality and the elimination of domestic violence and sexual violence, helped establish the foundation for a national women’s legislative movement in the 1990s. Against this background, she has since served as the president of the Korean Association of Women’s Studies, as a co-representative of the organization Women Making Peace, as chair of the Women’s Committee for the Peaceful Unification Advisory Council, and as a coordinator of Northeast Asia Region of GPPAC. She is currently an emeritus professor at Hanyang University and an executive director of the Joongmin Foundation, a public interest corporation.
