The range of experiences and knowledge in this collection provides a fresh and unique perspectivethrough its blend of theory and practice.This book will be of particular interest to students and scholars of law, political science and gender studies.Women (International law)Transitional justiceHuman rightsElectronic books.Women (International law)Transitional justice.Human rights.341.4858Yarwood LisaFlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910452265603321Women and transitional justice2072254UNINA
