Women Between War Scylla and Nationalist Charybdis: Legal Interpretations of Sexual Violence in Countries of Former Yugoslavia.This volume counters one-sided dominant discursive representations of gender in human rights and transitional justice, and women's place in the transformations of neoliberal human rights, and contributes a more balanced examination of how transitional justice and human rights institutions, and political institutions impact the lives and experiences of women. Using a multidisciplinary approach, the contributors to this volume theorize and historicize the place of women's rights (and gender), situating it within contemporary country-specific political, legal, socio-cultural and global contexts. Chapters examine the progress and challenges facing women (and women's groups) in transitioning countries: from Peru to Argentina, from Kenya to Sierra Leone, and from Bosnia to Sri Lanka, in a variety of contexts, attending especially to the relationships between local and global forces.Crossing Boundaries of Gender and Politics in the Global South,2946-4862Identity politicsEconomic developmentHuman rightsPolitical planningPolitical sciencePolitics and GenderDevelopment StudiesHuman RightsPublic PolicyGovernance and GovernmentIdentity politics.Economic development.Human rights.Political planning.Political science.Politics and Gender.Development Studies.Human Rights.Public Policy.Governance and Government.340.114Lahai John Idrissedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMoyo Khanyiselaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910300505303321Gender in Human Rights and Transitional Justice2235865UNINA
