From Mexico to Beijing: A New Paradigm
In: Health and human rights, Band 1, Heft 4, S. 454-460
Abstract
Examines progress & opportunities for expansion of women's rights leading up to the UN's Fourth World Conference on Women (1995) in Beijing, People's Republic of China. It is argued that the primary importance of such international conferences is their potential impact on law & politics at the national level. Women have begun to work together to broaden the global vision of rights by bringing a gender perspective to debates on poverty, violence, & social inequalities, & by including reproductive & sexual rights as part of the human rights agenda. The role of feminists in placing the debate on sexuality & reproduction within the larger framework of democracy & citizenship debates is examined. M. Greenberg
