Through a variety of key case studies, it reveals significant gaps in the legal conceptualisation of domestic violence between human rights standards on the one hand and the national legal systems examined - those of Ireland and Lithuania - on the other. The book reveals that, contrary to gender-based universal human rights approaches and despite recent legislative reforms, the legal concept of domestic violence is gender-blind. It fails to capture gender-based empirical realities on the ground, rendering national legal systems devoid of an empirically informed theoretical basis for addressing the problem. Despite the differences in the contextual backgrounds of the two case study countries, the legislation on domestic violence is underpinned by patriarchal beliefs in both. This book employs a gender-based examination of the issue that will be of key interest to scholars, legal practitioners and students of feminist legal theory, gender equality, gender in international law, human rights violation, and conceptual democracy"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Wife abuse $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a Women (International law) 650 0 $a Wife abuse $x Law and legislation $z Ireland. 650 0 $a Wife abuse $x Law and legislation $z Lithuania. 650 7 $a Wife abuse $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01175000 650 7 $a Women (International law) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177029 651 7 $a Ireland. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205427 651 7 $a Lithuania. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01227863 776 08 $i Online version: $a Bukauskaite, Jurgita. $t Understanding domestic violence as a gender-based human rights violation $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2023 $z 9781003350538 $w (DLC) 2022051017 830 0 $a Routledge studies in human rights 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240619011809.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5541874E2E0111EFA856D47D28ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
