Abstract
This article discusses ‘The Sexualisation of Young People’ review, authored by Dr Linda Papadopoulos in 2010 for the UK Home Office. The article examines the review as an academic piece of work, considers it in the context of debates about young people, violence and sexualization, and discusses the characteristics and significance of rhetorical accounts that operate as ‘laments’ about sexualization.Keywords
