This unique book analyses the impact of international human rights
on the concept of gender, demonstrating that gender emerged in the
medical study of sexuality and has a complex and broad meaning
beyond the sex and gender binaries often assumed by human rights
law. Ekaterina Yahyaoui Krivenko skilfully illustrates the dynamics
within the field of human rights which hinder the expansion of the
concept of gender and which strategies and mechanisms allow and
facilitate such an expansion. Gender and Human Rights surveys the
development of human rights from the creation of the United Nations
up to the present day and discusses key examples of the prohibition
of violence and the regulation of culture and family in the context
of human rights. This multidisciplinary study also incorporates
additional perspectives from medical science, feminism and queer
theory. This concise yet engaging book will be a valuable resource
for scholars, students and activists working at the intersection of
gender law and human rights law, providing a critical overview of
the topic alongside strategies for future growth.
