About The Book

This book offers a comprehensive study of the status of women and the structural roots of gender based violence, with a particular focus on the transformative period between 1975 and 2000. It traces the evolving roles, rights, and opportunities of women, critically examining multiple forms of violence including domestic, psychological, and mediarelated abuse and highlighting the cultural, social, and institutional factors that perpetuate harm. The volume also explores social and cultural interventions, awareness programs, policy measures, and strategies for prevention, empowerment, and systemic change. Combining historical insight, feminist perspectives, legal developments, and empirical research, this work is an indispensable resource for researchers, students, academicians, and policymakers dedicated to advancing gender justice, equality, and building a safer, more inclusive society for women worldwide.
