The chapters in this book are an assembly of commentaries by a
distinguished team of specialists on the social impact of the
Singapore Women's Charter on women and men. The Women's Charter is
the main legislation protecting women's rights in the context of
the family in Singapore. Highlights of this book include the
reasons for the significance of legislation to protect women's
rights in marriage; how the legislation came about; case studies
from Southeast Asia; how the Singapore Women's Charter evolved and
became established; how the Charter goes beyond protecting women's
rights by reinforcing men's and women's obligations and duties in a
marital partnership; how the Charter has come to be perceived by
men and women especially in its enforcement in the context of
divorce; and the social repercussions of the Charter on the family
in its application.There has been ongoing discussion on the
implications of the Charter on the lives of Singaporean women and
men for some years since its implementation. The purpose of this
book is to enrich our understanding of this legislation further -
its objectives, efficacy and shortfalls.
