Kim M. Anderson: Violence Against Women, Gebunden

Klappentext

Violence Against Women: Countering Historical and Contemporary Missteps on the Road to Social Justiceexamines violence against women as a systemic and intersectional human rights crisis.

Drawing on sociology, law, public health, and feminist theory, the book emphasizes structural, political, and representational dimensions of intersectionality to show how racism, sexism, colonialism, ableism, and economic inequality converge to shape patterns of harm and help-seeking. The book traces how language, media narratives, institutional practices, and state policies reproduce vulnerability and constrain justice, while foregrounding survivor leadership and perspectives too often marginalized.
