- Description
- Vanuit diverse invalshoeken worden feminisme en vrouwenbeweging in Costa Rica in de jaren negentig belicht. De bundel is ingedeeld volgens de volgende onderwerpen: In Dl 1.'The varying faces of the Women's Movement and feminism' komen de verschillende theoretische uitgangspunten van de vrouwenbeweging in Costa Rica, van liberaal tot radicaal, aan de orde. In deel 2 'Making women visible in Costa Rican history' wordt aandacht besteed aan de geschiedenis van de vrouwenbeweging in Costa Rica, vrouwengeschiednis als nieuw vakgebied. In deel 3 'the quest for women's equality' staat de wettelijke status van vrouwen centraal m.b.t. gelijke behandeling. In deel 4 'Women suffering discrimination' worden verschillende aspecten onderzocht van discriminatie op basis van ras, klasse, seksuele voorkeur en fysieke handicaps, evenals geweld binnen het gezin en incest. Deel 5 'Women's organizations and organizations working with women' belicht vrouwen werkzaam binnen organisaties op allerlei gebieden. In deel 6 'the women's movement and feminism in the arts' komt de manier aan de orde waarop vrouwelijke kunstenaars de rol van de vrouw ter discussie stellen. Deel 7 'the constantly evolving status of women's studies' besteedt aandacht aan programma's vrouwenstudies op twee Costaricaanse universiteiten en biedt verschillende voorbeelden van specifiek onderzoek in vrouwenstudies.

- 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
- Gender and Rights presents twenty five essays by leading international scholars and advocates the relationship between rights and gender inequality. The essays are organized into six categories: rights, sources of harm and well-being, work, family, violence and political process and participation. Particular attention is paid throughout to the relationship between cultural practices and legal rights. The volume also highlights the conceptual and the political development of rights claims and rights regimes for women and sexual minorities. The essays therefore focus not only on the theoretical justifications for rights but also on the contextual complexities of their enactment, implementation, enforcement and consequences.
