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 SouthIdentity politicsWomen in developmentSocial justiceHuman rightsPolitical planningPolitical scienceEconomic developmentSocial changePolitics and Genderhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911260Development and Genderhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913080Social Justice, Equality and Human Rightshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33070Public Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911060Governance and Governmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911220Development and Social Changehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913030Identity politics.Women in development.Social justice.Human rights.Political planningPolitical science.Economic development.Social change.Politics and Gender.Development and Gender.Social Justice, Equality and Human Rights.Public Policy.Governance and Government.Development and Social Change.340.114Lahai John Idrissedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMoyo Khanyiselaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910300505303321Gender in Human Rights and Transitional Justice2235865UNINA
