TY - GEN AB - This volume documents the global scope of gender violence, from countries where the legal response is just emerging to countries with long-standing law and policy regimes. Informed by international human rights law, it examines policy successes and failures, as well as grassroots efforts, to elicit a robust and proactive response from China to Chile. From the work of local activists to stem the tide of sexual and intimate partner violence after the Haitian earthquake of 2005, to the efforts to eradicate dowry-related violence in India, to the public education campaigns to prevent domestic violence in Scotland, it offers a comprehensive vision of efforts around the world to eradicate gender based violence - and a new lens through which to consider US efforts to address this kind of violence.
