{"product_id":"politics-experience-ritual-abuse-disbelief","title":"The Politics and Experience of Ritual Abuse: Beyond Disbelief","description":"Scott (sociology social policy and social work U. of Liverpool) takes seriously the accounts of survivors about ritual abuse and satanic ritual abuse but at the same time explores the politics of the field in which their accounts have emerged. She has no desire to convince readers that ritual abuse really happens but wants to explore how validity is accorded to some kinds of life stories and not others and how some people are constituted as reliable witnesses of their own lives while others are discredited. Ritual abuse happens in many religions throughout the world she admits but her focus is on those that have stirred controversy in the industrialized world since the 1980s.
