- Description
- The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) is one of the most important human rights tools ever created. Adopted in 1979 by the United Nations General Assembly, it is often described as an international bill of rights for women. These essays and personal reflections, from individuals who have served on the committee that monitors CEDAW, introduce readers to the issues and the activism. .Only a handful of countries have refused to ratify CEDAW: the United States is the only industrialized country among them. This book reveals the profound impact the convention has had on women's lives around the world and its potential to affect American women. With examples and moving reminiscences from Japan to Tunisia to the Caribbean and beyond, this collection addresses CEDAW's impact on women in Islam, labor markets, migration, violence against women, human trafficking, women in politics, and more.

- Description
- The aim of the author is to unravel some of the gendered ideologies that underpin the link between state identity and foreign security policy of the United States by looking at a certain case, state and foreign security policy. In particular this volume explores the identity of the US through military documents on perception management in conflict from 1991-2007. Namely the Persian Gulf War of 1991, the Somalia intervention of 1993, the Kosovo war of 1999, the Afghanistan campaign as a component of the war on terror and the invasion and occupation of Iraq from 2003.

- Description
- 'The role of women in conflict situations is a security issue, rather than exclusively a social or private matter. .On 31 October 2000, the UN Security Council adopted unanimously a resolution on women, peace and security, calling upon states to protect the human rights of girls and women. Landmark resolution 1325 became a fact.. .On 4 December 2007 the Netherlands adopted the Dutch National Action Plan (NAP) on SCR 1325, relying on a broad support base. The signatories, including the Ministries of Foreign Affairs, Defence and the Interior and Kingdom Relations, civil society organisations and knowledge institutions took upon themselves to jointly make a worldwide difference within the field of women, peace and security. .This booklet describes some examples of the Netherlands’ integrated approach in Afghanistan, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Sudan.'
