What does it mean to fight for women's rights in the 21st century? Around the globe, women stand up to repression, violence, and authoritarianism to make demands for justice. Against the odds and often risking their safety, such women dedicate their lives to a vision of a more equal future. The book takes readers from Burundi to Mexico, from Myanmar to South Africa. In each chapter, activists and academics partner to write compelling accounts of their struggles to advance women's issues on the ground. From women's efforts to prevent sexual violence in Colombia to their protests against the Taliban in Afghanistan, the authors weave stories from across the globe to show the rich diversity of women's struggles. The volume is the product of years of conversations and collaborations across continents, from Peru to Georgia to Brazil. It reveals the ways in which women's journeys, although different in content, overlap in meaning and the overarching goal to protect, empower, and ensure the rights of women in all their diversity. This book has been written to appeal to a general audience interested in the fight for women's rights around the world. It will also be appealing to students and researchers across feminist and gender studies, sociology, politics, and international relations.
