Description:
An accurate and comprehensive reference work on the position of women.
Black Book – The Position of Women Worldwide offers an impressive overview
of the position of women in the world through testimonies, analyses,
commentaries and portraits. Written by renowned journalists, anthropologists,
sociologists and other experts, and classified according to the five fundamental
rights: safety, integrity, freedom, respect and equality.
The situation of women in the West may have changed considerably in the course of the twentieth century
improved; for women outside this does not apply. Poverty hits them the hardest
and they also suffer the most from wars. All over the world
women are exploited and violence is used against them, not just physical violence,
but also violence in social, political and religious aspects.
It is high time that universal human rights for women are taken into account
funds. The Black Book offers numerous
inspiring examples of women
who fight for this with heart and soul.
Their stories offer readers the opportunity
to hear what they don't know
and to participate in a very
necessary struggle.
