This book explores the strategies, tensions and challenges associated with rights work from a feminist perspective. Articles on the Middle East, Africa, Latin America, East and South Asia examine the dilemmas that arise for feminist praxis in these diverse location, and address the question of what rights can contribute to struggles for gender justice. They explore the intersection of formal rights - wether international human rights conventions, constitutional rights or national legislation - with everyday realities of women in settings characterised by entrenched gender inequalities and poverty, plural legal systems and cultural norms that can constitute formidable obstacles to realising rights. They suggest that these sites of struggle can create new possibilities and meanings - and a politics of rights animated by demands for social and gender justice. 4aWomen's rights 4aFeminism0 aEdited by Andrea Cornwall and Maxine Molyneux  a10259/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10260/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10260/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10259/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10259/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10260/MKRI-P/XI-2008
