Special Issue on Perversion, American Imago
Special Issue on PERVERSION, American Imago Andrea Celenza (bio) and Murray M.

Is the scandal itself traumatic, or the fact of its occurrence, or is it the sexual abuse alone? For whom is this abuse traumatic? To what extent has the scandal simply occurred and in what ways is it a media creation, defined for its political and economic uses? And is not "abuse," like trauma, ano…
