Abstract

Like many postmodern texts, this chapter should be understood as a tentative attempt to tackle a very complex subject-area, which seeks to open up a dialogue and does not aim to provide yet another meta-narrative. The content of this chapter is derived both from a critical theoretical exploration of the notion of 'rights' and 'responsibilities', and on data collected during a criminological, methodologically mainly qualitative, social research project carried out in London's consensual 'S/M Scene'
