摘要

摘要：我们首次对美国的强奸文化进行了定量分析。长期以来，观察人士一直担心，对强奸的偏见新闻报道指责受害者、同情施暴者、暗示同意并质疑受害者的可信度，可能会阻止受害者站出来，最终增加强奸的发生率。我们提出了一个关于强奸文化如何影响施暴者、受害者和执法部门的偏好和选择的理论，并用2000年至2013年间美国报纸上发表的强奸新闻数据来检验这一理论。我们发现，媒体中的强奸文化既预测了强奸的频率，也预测了当地刑事司法系统对强奸的追求。在强奸文化更为普遍的司法管辖区，有更多的强奸案件记录在案，但当局在追查这些案件时没有那么警惕。

Does Rape Culture Predict Rape? Evidence from U.S. Newspapers, 2000–2013

Abstract: We offer the first quantitative analysis of rape culture in the United States. Observers have long worried that biased news coverage of rape which blames victims, empathizes with perpetrators, implies consent, and questions victims’ credibility may deter victims from coming forward, and ultimately increase the incidence of rape. We present a theory of how rape culture might shape the preferences and choices of perpetrators, victims and law enforcement, and test this theory with data on news stories about rape published in U.S. newspapers between 2000 and 2013. We find that rape culture in the media predicts both the frequency of rape and its pursuit through the local criminal justice system. In jurisdictions where rape culture was more prevalent, there were more documented rape cases, but authorities were less vigilant in pursuing them.

期刊介绍： In the last half-century, social scientists have engaged in a methodologically focused and substantively far-reaching mission to make the study of politics scientific. The mutually reinforcing components in this pursuit are the development of positive theories and the testing of their empirical implications. Although this paradigm has been associated with many advances in the understanding of politics, no leading journal of political science is dedicated primarily to the publication of positive political science.
