Abstract | This chapter will focus on laws on Intimate Partner Sexual Violence (IPSV) in Western Countries (e.g., Europe, North America and Australia), South Asia and the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) . The choice of regions is dictated by the different legal, social and cultural status of women in the regions, which provides a fairly comprehensive picture of the legal status of intimate partner sexual violence globally. Moreover, taking into account the illegal status of extra-marital sexual relationships in a number of communities, the focus of this chapter will be primarily marital rape. |
