- 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 Nordic countries have long been seen as pioneers in promoting gender equality. The book brings together scholars from the global South and post-socialist economies to reflect on Nordic approaches to gender equality. The contributors to the book seek to explore from a comparative perspective the vision, values, policies, mechanisms, coalitions of interests and political processes that help to explain Nordic achievements on gender equality. While some contributors explore the Nordic experience through the prism of their own realities, others explore their own realities through the Nordic prism.

- Description
- The authors argue that a struggle for women’s rights is possible within non-secular contexts. The articles explore the lives of orthodox religious women and reflect on the relationship between fundamentalism and feminism in religious contexts. Strategies and discourses of women and women’s organisations on how to relate to religious fundamentalism is discussed, such as the emerging movement of ‘Islamic feminism’ that strives for ‘gender justice’ within Islamic contexts, and the struggle of women in Latin America who plead for women’s rights while at the same time retaining their Catholic faith and beliefs. This book was also published as issue 27 (October 2006) of the Journal for Humanistics.

- Description
- This book aims to map the diversity of meanings of gender equality across Europe - including the European Union and member states such as Austria, the Netherlands, Hungary, Slovenia, Greece, and Spain - and reflects on the contested concept of gender equality. The different meanings of gender equality are explored comparatively in relation to the issues of family policies, domestic violence, and gender inequality in politics, while specific national contexts discuss the issues of prostitution (Austria, Slovenia), migration (the Netherlands), homosexual rights (Spain), and antidiscrimination (Hungary). Each chapter will provide insights on the ongoing theoretical and political debate about gender equality.

- Description
- European Union equality and anti-discrimination law were revolutionized by the incorporation of Article 13 into the EC Treaty, adding new anti-discrimination grounds and new possibilities. This volume looks at Article 13 and its directives: it adopts a contextual framework to equality and anti-discrimination law in the European Union. Part I deals with the evolution of Article 13, demographic and social change and the inter-relationship between European Equality Law and Human Rights. Part II contains expert essays on each of the Article 13 anti-discrimination grounds: sex, racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age and sexual orientation, with common themes weaving throughout.
