Forced Marriage: Introducing a social justice and human rights
perspective brings together leading practitioners and researchers
from the disciplines of criminology, sociology and law. Together
the contributors provide an international, multi-disciplinary
perspective that offers a compelling alternative to prevailing
conceptualisations of the problem of forced marriage. The volume
examines advances in theoretical debates, analyses existing
research and presents new evidence that challenges the cultural
essentialism that often characterises efforts to explain, and even
justify, this violation of women's rights. By locating forced
marriage within broader debates on violence against women, social
justice and human rights, the authors offer an intersectional
perspective that can be used to inform both theory and practical
efforts to address violence against diverse groups of women. This
unique book, which is informed by practitioner insights and
academic research, is essential reading for practitioners and
students of sociology, criminology, gender studies and law.
