Abstract

This article presents findings from a quantitative analysis of 215 case files regarding incidents of the crime of sexual molestation reported to the Swedish Police. We track the incidents through the criminal justice system and show a clearance rate of 9%. The clearance rate is higher when the attack is of a physical nature, the suspect is a stranger, and the incident occurs in a public place. While the statutory definition of sexual molestation is inclusive, this study shows that substantially there is a typical case of sexual harassment that is criminalized; a kind of "real sexual harassment" emerges.

“真正的性骚扰”：瑞典警方报告的性骚扰犯罪的减员。

本文介绍了对向瑞典警方报告的215起关于性骚扰犯罪事件的案件档案进行定量分析的结果。我们通过刑事司法系统追踪这些事件显示破案率为9%。当攻击是身体性质的，嫌疑人是陌生人，事件发生在公共场所时，清除率更高。虽然性骚扰的法定定义是包容性的，但本研究表明，基本上存在一种典型的性骚扰案例被定为刑事犯罪；一种“真正的性骚扰”出现了。
