This study explores the discursive construction of subjective change and non-change in the narratives of women volunteering at a Rape Crisis (henceforth RC) centre). Of key interest within the study are the dilemmas and negotiations triggered when selves collide with new structures (and alongside this 'new' or alternative discourses and discursive subject positions). Structurally RC is a rich site offering a plethora of new ways of talking and 'seeing' complex issues surrounding sexuality, violence, heterosexual relationships and gender dynamics and involvement with the organisation thus compels selves to negotiate and reflect upon their current positionings. In order to explore these subjective dilemmas two individual and detailed interviews were conducted with 7 participants (totally a complete set of 14 interviews). 2014-12-27T14:12:45Z 2014-12-27T14:12:45Z 2001 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10244 eng application/pdf Department of Psychology Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
