This book examines the strength of laws addressing four types of
violence against women rape, marital rape, domestic violence, and
sexual harassment in 196 countries from 2007 to 2010. It analyzes
why these laws exist in some places and not others, and why they
are stronger or weaker in places where they do exist. The authors
have compiled original data that allow them to test various
hypotheses related to whether international law drives the
enactment of domestic legal protections. They also examine the ways
in which these legal protections are related to economic,
political, and social institutions, and how transnational society
affects the presence and strength of these laws. The original data
produced for this book make a major contribution to comparisons and
analyses of gender violence and law worldwide."
