This timely and expansive multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary
collection dissects precolonial, colonial, and post-independence
issues of male dominance, power, and control over the female body
in the legal, socio-cultural, and political contexts in Africa.
Contributors focus on the historical, theoretical, and empirical
narratives of intersecting perspectives of gender and patriarchy in
at least ten countries across the major sub-regions of the African
continent. In these well-researched chapters, authors provide a
deeper understanding of patriarchy and gender inequality in
identifying misogyny, resisting male supremacy, reforming
discriminatory laws, embracing human-centered public policies,
expanding academic scholarship on the continent, and more.
