Gender justice, citizenship, and development

In this book, studies from Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East and North Africa, and sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia are prefaced by an introductory chapter that links current thinking on gender justice to debates on citizenship, entitlements, and law and development. A concluding chapter situates the discussion of gender justice, citizenship, and entitlements in current development debates on poverty alleviation and social exclusion. The book brings together multidisciplinary perspectives from leading feminist scholars of sociology, political science and legal studies, among others, and in doing so, provides new insights for both advocacy and research.

De hecho, por cada derecho que se ha establecido existen millones de mujeres que no lo ejercen.

  • "Bien que les femmes aient, partout dans le monde, obtenu des gains notables au cours des dernières décennies, les inégalités entre les hommes et les femmes et les injustices fondées sur le genre continuent d'empêcher les femmes de réaliser leurs droits et leur plein exercice au titre de citoyennes et de partenaires à part entière dans les processus décisionnels et le développement. Les études présentées ici relient la réflexion actuelle sur la justice de genre aux débats sur la citoyenneté, les droits, les lois et le développement."
  • ""This book is a contribution to current efforts to re-energize and re-politicize the gender equality agenda in international development. It brings together leading scholars in the gender and development field, who were asked to interrogate the concept of 'gender justice' from conceptual, contextual and strategic angles. The result is a stimulating multidisciplinary collection that brings feminist analysis to bear on current debates on development and citizenship. As an organization devoted to 'empowerment through knowledge', for a long time the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) has been interested in women's empowerment. Its various programmes of support to research make use of gender and social analysis. However, anticipating the current wave of reassessments of 'gender mainstreaming', in the early 2000s several of us at IDRC began to feel that in addition to systematizing the consideration of gender equity and equality issues in all projects, a specific programme of support to research on gender and development per se was needed. The chapters in this book started their life as commissioned papers to inform the development of such a programme. Several of the authors joined IDRC staff, along with gender and development practitioners from around the world, at a stimulating workshop in Ottawa at the end of 2003. During that time, the contours of a new IDRC programme on issues of gender injustice, citizenship and entitlements began to emerge."--Excerpted from Foreword."

Un capítulo de conclusión sitúa los análisis de estos temas en el marco de los debates actuales sobre mitigación de pobreza y exclusión social que interesan al campo del desarrollo. La obra aporta perspectivas multidisciplinarias de las más destacadas académicas feministas en sociología, ciencias políticas y derecho, entre otras. Al hacerlo, entrega nuevas visiones para la promoción de derechos y la investigación.""@en
