Sumario:Two conditions must be met in order for a person to be rightly considered the victim of a crime. First, there must be the victim of some form of harm. Second, the harm in question was the direct result of an act in which the harmed individual did not knowingly consent to take part.

Finally, how does the conceptualization of victimization change when viewed from liberal and radical feminist perspectives?
