Abstract

- This Special Issue has been developed through the work of the Nordic Women’s Net-work in Criminal Law and is dedicated to our dear late colleague and friend professor emerita Madeleine Leijonhufvud (in memoriam). Leijonhufvud was the first woman to take her doctorate and to become a professor in Criminal Law in Sweden. She was engaged in various societal areas and involved in the public debate and policy making on issues such as pornography, procuring and the rape legislation. Leijonhufvud’s assiduous work, never-ending and patient commitment and efforts to create gender equal living conditions, and especially to combating men’s violence against women and girls, the network wishes to dedicate this special issue to her memory. Societal challenges inevitably raise fundamental questions about power and the exercise of power. What role does media descriptions of realities play and how are these interpreted and reformulated as part of a political agenda? How does the government exercise its power against individuals through the use of law, and in particular the criminal law, to deal with societal problems connected to these challenges? We see the tendencies of an offensive criminal law but at the same time a hesitation against the use of criminal law combatting violence against women. The contributions in this special issue discusses and point to the difficulty to strike a balance between the rule of law and the interests of the perpetrator as well as of the victim/survivor.
