Abstract

Frank Furedi’s exposition of the Jimmy Savile scandal is a self-styled offer of a “sociologically informed explanation” of the drama, as it unfolded. Its publication date of 2013 is significant, because even a year is a long time in the dismal saga of child abuse revelations in 21st century Britain.
