Inhaltsangabe

This volume explores a variety of 'harmful cultural practices': a term increasingly employed by organizations working within a human rights framework to refer to certain discriminatory practices against women in the global South. Drawing on recent work by feminists across the social sciences, as well as activists from around the world, this volume presents research on practices such as child and forced marriage, gender-based violence, polygamy, female genital 'mutilation', honour crimes and unequal marital and inheritance rights.
