- Description
- Violence against women across the globe is still perpetuated in the gap between legal principle and local practices. The book investigates the tensions between global law and local justice from an insider's perspective. As an observer of UN diplomatic netotiations as well as the workings of grassroots feminist organizations in several countries, Merry shows how human rights law holds authorities accountable for the protection of citizens even while it reinforces and expands state power.

- Description
- Learning to box alongside four inner-city teenage girls, Cohen delivers a sensitive, nimbly written account that is part memoir, part sports story and part critical inquiry into the nature of aggression. Cohen tells the story of sisters Jacinta, Sefina and Candi Rodriguez, their friend Nikki Silvano and their diminutive coach, Raphaëlla Cruz, one of the first amateur female boxing champions. Most of those drawn to the Boston-area Somerville Boxing Club are troubled in some way, Cohen suggests. Jacinta and Nikki are best friends, but some see them as too close: Nikki has an oppressive, difficult mother: before boxing, all the girls were quick to use their fists in disputes. Aggression is an essential aspect of female behavior, Cohen says, and its sublimation can result in the 'relational aggression' discussed in Rachel Simmons's Odd Girl Out and other similar books. Cohen links her own forays into the ring to her own issues with weight, parenting and violence.

- Description
- In this book twenty-one young South Africans from a range of social backgrounds speak candidly about their experiences, hopes and dreams. For many young people in South Africa, coming to terms with their sexual orientation can be a very painful experience. Although protection against discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is guaranteed in the national constitution, lesbian and gay youths often face a lack of acceptance by family and society. The book not only focuses on the difficulties faced, but also the positive options and strategies adopted by well-adjusted young people, thus providing positive role models that readers can relate to as they begin to make their own life choices.
