  • Negotiating Gender Equity in the Global South: the Politics
    ‘This book provides exciting new ways of thinking about how women’s rights policy change occurs in the Global South. Drawing on meso-level analysis of how six countries passed legislation to combat domestic violence, the book shows, for example, the importance of forming strategic alliances around the interests and ideas of dominant actors; the role of elite cohesion; and the politics of ideas and discursive framing of gender equity. It is certain to influence contemporary think- ing about gender-related policy reform and, as such, it is a must read for interna- tional and domestic policy makers, women’s rights activists, donors, scholars of gender and politics, and many others.’ —Aili Mari Tripp, Wangari Maathai Professor of Political Science & Gender and Women’s Studies, University of Wisconsin–Madison, USA ‘Understanding the political processes that lead to greater gender equity in the Global South is a first step in tackling problems such as domestic violence in a transformative way. This book makes an important contribution both conceptu- ally and empirically in this highly policy-relevant field—a must read for scholars, activists, and policy-makers committed to promote gender equality and social justice.’ —Katja Hujo, Senior Research Coordinator, Social Policy and Development Programme, UNRISD, Switzerland ‘This book is a great addition to the literature on gender equality policies, focusing particularly on domestic violence in the Global South. It carefully demonstrates the strategies for confronting deeply entrenched power inequalities across institutions of the state and society. A must read for activists and research- ers alike.’ —Nitya Rao, Professor of Gender and Development, University of East Anglia, UK BK-TandF-9780815372356_TEXT_BRUNT-181008-FM.indd 1 14/02/19 1:07 PM ‘This is an excellent collection of articles.

Meeting the Minister of Justice and Constitutional affairs, Kahinda Otafiire, yesterday, the MPs described the proposals as “cosmetic, unconstitutional and discriminatory.” Some MPs went to the extent of referring to some of the proposals as stupid. The MPs demanded a compilation of all the proposals that were submitted to the ministry so that they could examine them.
