Abstract

This volume explores a variety of ’harmful cultural practices’ : a term increasingly employed by organizations working within a human rights framework to refer to certain discriminatory practices against women in the global South. Drawing on recent work by feminists across the social sciences, as well as activists from around the world, this volume discusses and presents research on practices such as veiling, forced marriage, honour related and dowry violence, female genital ’mutilation’, lip plates and sex segregation in public space. With attention to the analytic utility of the notion of harmful cultural practices, this volume explores questions surrounding the contribution of feminist thought to international and NGO policies on such practices, whether western beauty practices should be analysed in similar terms, or should the notion as such from an anthropological perspective be rejected, how harmful cultural practices relate to processes of culturalization, religionization and secularization, and how they can be challenged, come to transform and disappear. Presenting concrete, empirical case studies from Africa, South East Asia, Europe and the UK Interrogating Harmful Cultural Practices will be of interest to scholars of sociology, anthropology, development and law with interests in gender, the body, violence and women’s agency.

Abstract

Depuis vingt ans, une violence inouïe frappe cette région. Si toute guerre fait des ravages parmi les populations ­civiles, les femmes paient ici le plus lourd tribut. Une situation cauche­mardesque qui a pris racine sur les collines rwandaises en 1994, l'année du génocide. Le viol, ­tacitement accepté sur les champs de bataille depuis la nuit des temps, y a pris une dimension nouvelle: désormais utilisé à des fins stratégiques, il est ­devenu une véritable arme de guerre. Conquête des terres, exploitation des minerais, exutoire pour un Rwanda surpeuplé, volonté d'éradiquer une population..., autant de raisons qui expliquent cette barbarie sexuelle. Ce livre est un voyage au pays de ces femmes et enfants que des hommes brutalisent, violent, torturent, mutilent. ­Grâce aux regards croisés des auteurs - du romancier au méde­cin en passant par le journaliste ou le juriste -, le lecteur ­trouvera des clés pour mieux appréhender ce phénomène effrayant. Si le tableau est noir, il existe néanmoins des signes ­d'espoir, avec des ­femmes debout, déterminées, dignes. Ces ­femmes qui sont non seulement la colonne vertébrale de leur ­famille, mais aussi de l'économie, et qui par leurs ­actions et leur engagement sèment les graines d'un monde plus juste.
