- Description
- Constitutionalism affirms the idea that democracy should not lead to the violation of human rights or the oppression of minorities. This book aims to explore the relationship between constitutional law and feminism. The contributors offer a spectrum of approaches and the analysis is set across a wide range of topics, including both familiar ones like reproductive rights and marital status, and emerging issues such as a new societal approach to household labor and participation of women in constitutional discussions online. The book is divided into six parts: I) feminism as a challenge to constitutional theory: II) feminism and judging: III) feminism, democracy, and political participation: IV) the constitutionalism of reproductive rights: V) women's rights, multiculturalism, and diversity: and VI) women between secularism and religion

- Description
- In this collection the authors examine the question whether democratization in Southern Africa has resolved the political participation and policy impact of women. Here this question is explored in the context of two countries, South Africa and Uganda, which in this regard have accomplished much more than most (including the Western democracies). In the volume is also examined two litmus-test pieces of legislation - around land in Uganda and gender violence in South Africa. What emerges is that the political routes to increased female participation vary and the solidity of the gains made depends much on the strength of the gender-equity lobby in society at large.
