Gender-based violence, rights and health /Jill Astbury.Violence against women is a violation of women's human rights and a priority public health issue. It is endemic worldwide. While much has been written about it in industrialized societies, there has been relatively little attention given to such violence in Asian societies. This book addresses the structural and interpersonal violences to which women are subject, both under conditions of conflict and disruption, and where civil society is relatively ordered. It explores sexual violence and coercion, domestic violence, and violence within the broader community and the state, avoiding sensationaASAA women in Asia series.WomenCrimes againstAsiaWomenViolence againstAsiaSex discrimination against womenAsiaWomenCrimes againstWomenViolence againstSex discrimination against women362.88/082/095Bennett Linda Rae925955Manderson Lenore476756MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790547803321Violence against women in Asian societies3722517UNINA
