The law is a well-known tool in fighting gender inequality, but which laws actually advance women’s rights? This book unpacks the complex nuances behind gender-responsive domestic legislation, from several of the world’s leading experts on gender equality. Drawing on domestic examples and international law, it provides a primer of theory alongside tangible and practical solutions to fulfil the promise of the law to deliver equality between men and women. Part I outlines what progress has been made to date on eradicating gender inequality, and insights into the law’s potential as one lever in the global struggle for equality. Parts II and III go on to explore concrete areas of law, with case studies from multiple jurisdictions that examine how well domestic legislation is working for women. The authors bring their critical lens to areas of law often considered from a gender perspective – gender-based violence, women’s reproductive health, labour and gender equality quotas – while bringing much-needed analysis to issues often ignored in gender debates, such as taxation, environmental justice and good governance. Part IV seeks to move from a theoretical goal of greater accountability to a practical one. It explores both accountability for international women’s rights norms at the domestic level and the potential of feminist approaches to legislation to deliver laws that work for women. Written for students, academics, legislators and policymakers engaged in international women’s rights law, gender equality, government accountability and feminist legal theory, this book has tremendous transformative potential to drive forward legal change towards the eradication of gender inequality.

2020 marks the 25th anniversary of the adoption of the Beijing Platform for Action. It also marks the first time that progress on the implementation of the Platform is reviewed in light of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted in 2015. This report therefore takes an integrated approach to reporting on progress, gaps and challenges related to the advancement of gender equality and women's rights across six dimensions that link the Platform's critical areas of concern and the Sustainable Development Goals. It finds that there have been important gains since the adoption of the Beijing Platform in 1995, but that progress towards gender equality has stalled and even reversed in some areas in recent years. Across the globe women's movements, energized by young feminists at the helm, are challenging slow and piecemeal progress and are impatient for systemic change. World leaders can learn from the ways in which these movements work across silos and political boundaries, seeing their work to advance the rights of women and girls as inextricably linked to the achievement of economic, social and environmental justice for all. The report features their voices that must be heard and acted upon. The report also highlights catalytic policies and programmes under each of the six dimensions as well as a number of cross-cutting strategies that can accelerate the implementation of the entire Platform for Action for this generation and the next.

This book, which I am pleased to preface, is divided into two parts of great relevance to contemporary feminist studies, especially to the peripheral countries of the capitalist world. In it lie essays that I divide into two categories. On the one hand, we have articles that address structural issues involving human rights and, in particular, women’s rights. These are the texts that discuss the way in which the subject of human rights, in the contexts of the regional economic communities, are inserted; there are also the texts that address the bankruptcy of the patriarchal political system regarding the political representation of women in countries like India and Brazil; and the chapter in which the authors reflect on the need for an international feminist normative that breaks with the predominantly male discourse in international law, which disregards feminist proposals for normalization. The other part of the book covers varied subjects that connect with the feminist agenda and gender studies as well as contemporary identity processes. These are studies on the reproductive rights of women; sexual and domestic violence against women; environmental degradation and its relation to the patriarchal model to the detriment of traditional cultures; the immigration of women for marriage as a conscious choice; mental health and its relation to gender issues. Chapters: 1. REGIONAL ECONOMIC COMMUNITIES IN HUMAN AND WOMEN´S RIGHTS PROTECTION 2. WOMEN REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS: A REFLECTION ABOUT INTERNATIONAL PROTECTION OF HUMAN RIGHTS 3. WOMEN AND MENTAL HEALTH: A STUDY ON ADOLESCENCY AND GENDER IN BRAZIL 4. A PROGRAM TO COMBAT HARASSMENT AGAINST WOMEN: CONSIDERATION FOR IMPLEMENTATION AT THE UNIVERSITY 5. DOMESTIC AND FAMILY VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN IN BRAZIL: IS THERE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL? 6. ENVIRONMENTAL PATRIARCHY AND INDIGENOUS WOMEN: FROM INVISIBILITY TO RESISTANCE 7. MARRIAGE EMIGRATION OF WOMEN FROM RUSSIA 8. RESERVATIONS, INTERSECTIONALITY, AND WOMEN’S REPRESENTATION IN INDIAN POLITICS 9. FIGHTING AGAINST GENDER INEQUALITY IN PARLIAMENT: CHALLENGES AND PERSPECTIVES FROM THE BRAZILIAN CASE 10. BUILDING UP AN INTERNATIONAL FEMINIST LAW

This volume counters one-sided dominant discursive representations of gender in human rights and transitional justice, and women’s place in the transformations of neoliberal human rights, and contributes a more balanced examination of how transitional justice and human rights institutions, and political institutions impact the lives and experiences of women. Using a multidisciplinary approach, the contributors to this volume theorize and historicize the place of women’s rights (and gender), situating it within contemporary country-specific political, legal, socio-cultural and global contexts. Chapters examine the progress and challenges facing women (and women’s groups) in transitioning countries: from Peru to Argentina, from Kenya to Sierra Leone, and from Bosnia to Sri Lanka, in a variety of contexts, attending especially to the relationships between local and global forces
