The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination
against Women (CEDAW) articulates what has now become a global
norm. CEDAW establishes the moral, civic, and political equality of
women; women's right to be free from discrimination and violence;
and the responsibility of governments to take positive action to
achieve these goals. The United States is not among the 187
countries that have ratified the treaty. To explain why the United
States has not ratified CEDAW, this book highlights the emergence
of the treaty in the context of the Cold War, the deeply partisan
nature of women's rights issues in the United States, and basic
disagreements about how human rights treaties work.
