Description
This book explores women’s rights from an international perspective. The authors discuss abortion, surrogacy, prostitution, marriage and family law, touching on themes including children, property, forced and arranged marriage and under-age marriage, separation, divorce and widowhood. They also analyse commerce and financial rights, as well as employment rights and women in the corporate sector. Throughout the book these topics raise questions of respect, from the perspective of violence against women, provision of resources and services, and women in the criminal justice system under bail and imprisonment. This book also addresses the representation of women in media and politics, including in film and literature. Overall, the authors explore the intersection of rights, respect and representation, and their roles in women’s status in society as well as in law.
