Drawing on detailed case studies from the United States, Africa, Latin America, Asia, and elsewhere, contributors to the volume explore the specific social histories, political struggles, cultural assumptions, and gender ideologies that have produced certain rights or reframed long-standing debates in the language of rights. The essays address the gender-specific ways in which rights-based protocols have been analyzed, deployed, and legislated in the past and the present and the implications for women and men, adults and children in various social and geographical locations. Questions addressed include: What are the gendered assumptions and effects of the dominance of rights-based discourses for claims to social justice? What kinds of opportunities and limitations does such a "culture of rights" provide to seekers of justice, whether individuals or collectives, and how are these gendered? How and why do female bodies often become the site of contention in contexts pitting cultural against juridical perspectives? The contributors speak to central issues in current scholarly and policy debates about gender, culture, and human rights from comparative disciplinary, historical, and geographical perspectives. By taking "gender," rather than just "women," seriously as a category of analysis, the chapters suggest that the very sources of the power of human rights discourses, specifically "women's rights as human rights" discourses, to produce social change are also the sources of its limitations. 410 0$aPennsylvania studies in human rights. 606 $aWomen's rights$zDeveloping countries 606 $aHuman rights$zDeveloping countries 606 $aWomen$zDeveloping countries$xSocial conditions 606 $aCulture 606 $aWomen's rights 606 $aHuman rights 606 $aWomen$xSocial conditions 610 $aAnthropology. 610 $aFolklore. 610 $aHuman Rights. 610 $aLaw. 610 $aLinguistics. 615 0$aWomen's rights 615 0$aHuman rights 615 0$aWomen$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aWomen's rights. 615 0$aHuman rights. 615 0$aWomen$xSocial conditions. 676 $a305.4209 686 $aPC 5350$2rvk 702 $aHodgson$b Dorothy L. 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788581303321 996 $aGender and Culture at the Limit of Rights$93678346 997 $aUNINA
