Gender Violence: A Cultural Perspective offers a powerful anthropological and socio-legal analysis of violence against women across different cultural contexts. Sally Engle Merry examines how gender violence is defined, experienced, and addressed within local communities as well as through global human rights frameworks. The book explores the tensions between universal human rights norms and local cultural practices, showing how ideas about gender, power, and justice shape responses to violence. Drawing on ethnographic research and legal analysis, this work is essential for understanding gender violence from a cross-cultural and interdisciplinary perspective.
