- The author states that women have a human right to abortion, that abortion rights are necessary for gender equality, and that the availibility of abortion is dispensable for public health and social development.

- Description
- This book surveys the changes taking place at the start of the twenty-first century in the social, cultural, political and economic domains and their impact on sexuality, health and human rights. The relationships between men, women and children are changing quickly, as are the traditional family structures. What were once viewed as private matters have become public, and the conflicts between these emerging movements have come into the open. .This work presents a framework for understanding this new world, set in the context of the major theoretical debates of the last few decades.

- Description
- This book looks at why do governments promote women's rights. Through analysis of state action in seventy countries from 1975 to 2005, the book shows how different women's rights issues involve different histories and trigger different conflicts. Change on violence against women and workplace equality involves a logic of status politics: feminist movements leverage international norms to contest women's subordination. Family law, abortion and contraception, conform to a logic of doctrinal politics, which turns on relations between religious groups and the state. Publicly-paid parental leave and child care follow a logic of class politics, in which the strength of Left parties and overall economic conditions are more salient.
