• Sommario/riassunto: In this book, Natalie Persadie explains that, among developing countries, the achievement of legal advances for women-at either the international or national levels-is particularly difficult where practical measures are not subsequently implemented. She examines the need for financial and human resources to make such legal measures effective.
