- Description
- The purpose of this book is to present the attitudes on wifebeating that can be found in Jewish texts. The rabbinic responses to wifebeating in the Jewish community are not monolithic. Many 'agunot' (anchored or chained women) have been created as a result of those rabbis who are unwilling to use halachic means (Jewish legal tradition) to free wives from oppressive husbands, by not forcing the husband to give his wife a Jewish bill of divorce ('get').

- Description
- This book reconsiders a reliance on the criminal justice system for solving women’s struggles with domestic violence: acknowledge how militarism subjects women to extreme levels of violence perpetrated from within, and without, their communities: recognize how the medical establishment inflicts violence—such as involuntary sterilization and inadequate health care—on women of color: devise new strategies for cross-cultural dialogue, theorizing and alliance building. .INCITE! Women of Color Against Violence was born in 2000, when more than two thousand activists from diverse communities came together to end the war being waged on women of color in the US and around the world. Now the largest multiracial, grassroots, feminist organization in the United States, INCITE! boasts chapters in more than 20 cities.

- 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.

- This ethnography examines the impact of welfare reform on women seeking to escape domestic violence. Dana-Ain Davis profiles twenty-two women, thirteen of whom are Black, living in a battered women’s shelter in a small city in upstate New York. She explores the contradictions between welfare reform’s supposed success in moving women off of public assistance and toward economic self-sufficiency and the consequences welfare reform policy has presented for Black women fleeing domestic violence. Focusing on the intersection of poverty, violence, and race, she demonstrates the differential treatment that Black and White women face in their entanglements with the welfare bureaucracy by linking those entanglements to the larger political economy of a small city.

- Description
- This book examines the strength of laws addressing four types of violence against women - rape, marital rape, domestic violence, and sexual harassment - in 196 countries from 2007 to 2010. It analyzes why these laws exist in some places and not others, and why they are stronger or weaker in places where they do exist. The authors have compiled original data that allow them to test various hypotheses related to whether international law drives the enactment of domestic legal protections. They also examine the ways in which these legal protections are related to economic, political, and social institutions, and how transnational society affects the presence and strength of these laws.
