dc.description.abstractThis chapter explores variation in international definitions and interpretations of children's consent to sexual activity. Addressing questions of child sexual exploitation and child sexual abuse, it argues that the protection of children from abuse would be advanced if there was international agreement of the age of consent to sexual activity and the meaning associated with 'consent' overall.
