| Publisher Description: These three authors map the issue of equality before law and various issues relating to women's rights, social justice, and empowerment. The omnibus forms a comprehensive and significant study for understanding why progressive laws, once passed, continue to be implemented in such a limited manner. It highlights that legislation even in the past fifty years have not brought equality. |
