Book excerpt: Forced Marriage: Introducing a social justice and human rights perspective brings together leading practitioners and researchers from the disciplines of criminology, sociology and law. Together the contributors provide an international, multi-disciplinary perspective that offers a compelling alternative to prevailing conceptualisations of the problem of forced marriage. The volume examines advances in theoretical debates, analyses existing research and presents new evidence that challenges the cultural essentialism that often characterises efforts to explain, and even justify, this violation of women's rights. By locating forced marriage within broader debates on violence against women, social justice and human rights, the authors offer an intersectional perspective that can be used to inform both theory and practical efforts to address violence against diverse groups of women. This unique book, which is informed by practitioner insights and academic research, is essential reading for practitioners and students of sociology, criminology, gender studies and law.

Green Ruined through her vile brother's schemes, Eleanor Chivenham is offered rescue by marriage to a rake with an infamous French mistress. Eleanor accepts, determined to treat the arranged marriage with cool dignity. Then she meets Nicholas Delaney. Not only does he stir her senses, but the trouble and pain beneath his smooth exterior reaches her heart. Nicholas is indeed troubled. While serving his country by seducing secrets out of a French spy, he is persuaded to marry Eleanor to protect his family's honor. But such chivalry runs counter to his carefully wrought rogue image, and extends the life-threatening plots shadowing him to Eleanor. To assist, Nicholas re-assembles the Company of Rogues, a schoolboy group he started years before. But not even they can dampen Eleanor's fighting wit that is quickly unmasking their enemy and testing Nicholas' formidable will.

Download or read book Forced Marriage written by Abu Sadik Maruf and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-04-25 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forced marriage is a serious abuse of human rights that involves physical torture and/or emotional blackmail by family. It is not merely an issue in the UK. It is an international issue comes along with other problems such as domestic violence, inequality and poverty. It can affect particular population globally and locally. In the UK, hundreds of people, particularly girls and young women are forced into marriage each year. Studies found that victims can be as young as 9 years old to older as 35 and over. South Asian communities are the largest ethnic minority group in the UK. In addition, there have historically been very articulate and powerful South Asian feminist groups that have challenged gender related issues within these communities, including forced marriage, honour related violence and dowry related violence (Caroll, 1998; Gangoli et al., 2006). As a result, there has been much focus on Pakistani, Bangladeshi and Indian communities and therefore a wider recognition of the issue of forced marriage. However, it is also important to recognise here that a wide range of other minority ethnic, religious as well as majority communities are also involved, including African, Middle Eastern, Latin American and Eastern Europeans (Chantler, Gangoli & Hester, 2009). This study addresses the international and cross-cultural dimensions of a social problem. It mainly focused on British Bangladeshi community to know the circumstances of forced marriage in general and then evaluated the existing social work services in the UK. The main interest of the study was in the statements of particular groups of people including their personal views, perceptions and experiences on forced marriage.

Download or read book International Exploration on Forced Marriages written by Emma Ratia and published by Wolf Legal Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Towards the end of 2008, news audiences in the United Kingdom followed the story of Humayra Abedin, a 33-year-old NHS doctor from East London who was allegedly being held captive in her native Bangladesh by her parents who planned to force her to marry a husband they deemed suitable for her. Abedin sought help, and returned to the United Kingdom on the 16th of December after the High Court had issued an injunction ordering the parents of Abedin to free her. This story does not stand alone: most Western European countries know of similar cases. According to Razack, such cases have signalled the beginning of European legal involvement in the area of forced marriages. Since the 1990s, forced marriage has become a hot political issue in several European countries. The aim of the study was to create an international and actual overview on the policy on forced marriages in Western Europe. Seeing that the study deals with debates and policy it is necessary to emphasise here that the topic of the study was not so much actual cases of forced marriage as the perception of forced marriage in the different countries. The central question was then to examine what is known about the policy and discussions on forced marriages in Belgium, France, Germany, the United Kingdom and Switzerland. Instead of focusing exclusively on policy, a choice was made for including the societal context in the form of debates on forced marriage in order to have a more complete overview.
