- 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
- The author addresses key themes that have emerged in politics in post-colonial states: nationalism and its developmental framing of gender relations: the debates on the post-colonial state among feminists: policy agencies that have become the state's answer to women's struggles for political and economic inclusion: democratization of the state and the implications for the refashioning of gender and power relations: practical problem-solving through quotas for women in representative politics and the limits to such an approach to political equality. She describes how women have engaged with institutions of governance in developing countries, looking in particular at political participation, deliberative democracy, representation, leadership and state feminism. She also examines the governance of the regimes of production, consumption and exchange from the last three decades by focussing on an analysis of the Trade Related Intellectual Property (TRIPS) regime and how governance of global regimes of production affects the ways in which inequalities are being reproduced.
