Title A name given to the resource Sexual violence in cyberspace: breaking the silence of international law Subject The topic of the resource breaking the silence; criminal law; cybersexual violence; cyberspace; international law; sexual violence Description An account of the resource The increasing dependence of the world on digital technology and the internet has consequently led to the juxtaposition of the problematic social structure in online transactions and communications. This has resulted in increasing cases of cybersexual violence against women. The article argues that the effects of cybercrimes are transnational and, therefore, the traditional domestic criminal law is rather inept in preventing crime and punishing offenders. This increases the obligation of international law, which has so far remained silent on the issue. The articles conclusion suggests that the proposed World Convention on Cybercrime should include cybersexual violence as a core crime. This would serve as a beginning for addressing the threat, effect, and extent of the crime of cybersexual violence. The article concludes that the masculinist normative structure of international law is to blame for its culture of silence. Copyright 2024 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
