As recent legislative and judicial victories create inroads towards equality for this growing population, members and advocates of these minorities navigate evolving political and legal systems while continuing to fight against societal and institutional resistance.

Skillfully synthesizing the research of political scientists, political theorists, and historians, Jason Pierceson describes the history of the LGBT rights movement, chronicles the building of political and legal movements and the responses to them, examines philosophical debates within and about the movement, and assesses the current state of the politics and policies concerning sexual minorities.In addition to carefully structured analyses and contextual explanations, the text provides lists of key terms and discussion questions in each chapter to aid student comprehension and fuel classroom debate.

Book Synopsis The Rights of Minorities: Cultural Groups, Migrants, Displaced Persons and Sexual Identity by : J. Alberto del Real Alcala
Download or read book The Rights of Minorities: Cultural Groups, Migrants, Displaced Persons and Sexual Identity written by J. Alberto del Real Alcala and published by Bentham Science Publishers. This book was released on 2017-11-14 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume focuses on the rights of minorities. Minorities are often subject to discrimination and individuals find themselves being rejected by the majority. In such cases, people belonging to a minority suffer through hostile situations. Minorities discussed in this book are defined in terms of cultural groups, migrants, displaced persons, sexual minorities (sexual identity). As with the previous volume, readers are informed about the concept of human rights, as an instrument through which civil society tries to eliminate the hostility and suffering of minorities and restores a situation of normality. Minorities must also accept that a democratic society is governed by majority rule and the Rule of Law. The Rights of Minorities: Cultural Groups, Migrants, Displaced Persons and Sexual Identity discusses four types of minorities: cultural groups, migrants, displaced persons, sexual minorities, and policy on minorities. The book is a detailed reference for graduates and scholars in law, human rights activism, political science, sociology and social psychology. The volume is also recommended for working professionals who operate with human rights groups and general readers (non-experts) who want to understand the discourse about human rights in a holistic (moral, legal, social, economic, and political) framework.

Book excerpt: Book deals with the Human Rights issues of the sexual minorities in particular their right to marriage. Discrimination from the main stream society is one of the main issues faced by the LGBTQ+ community. At present only 29 countries around the world have recognized the right to marriage of sexual minorities and Asian countries like India has not recognized this right. Individuals should be given right to self determination of their gender identity. Same as discrimination on the basis of race and color, discrimination on the basis of sexuality is also a human right violation which is recognized by the international community. Law is not a panacea for the entire issues faced by the LGBTQ+ community, the attitude of the society should be changed to accommodate the discriminated peoples like transgenders and other LGBTQ+ .
Book Synopsis Protection of Sexual Minorities since Stonewall by : Phil C.W. Chan
Download or read book Protection of Sexual Minorities since Stonewall written by Phil C.W. Chan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Stonewall Riot in New York in 1969 marked the birth of the sexual minority rights movement worldwide. In the subsequent four decades, equality and related rights on grounds of sexual orientation and gender identity have been enshrined in many African, Asian, Australasian, European and North American countries, thanks to better informed discourses of the natures of sexual orientation, gender identity, equality and rights that systematic scientific and socio-legal research has generated. Discrimination, harassment and persecution on grounds of a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity, however, continue to pervade the laws and social norms in all developed and developing countries. In tribute to the courage of those who participated in the Stonewall Riot, this book examines the progress and stalemate in various countries on five continents, as well as in the development of international law, concerning the rights of persons belonging to sexual minorities. This book covers issues including homophobic bullying and gay–straight alliances in schools; the merits and problems that legislation prohibiting hate speech on grounds of sexual orientation presents; criminal justice systems in relation to male rape victims and to criminalisation of HIV exposure and transmission; the development of sexual minority rights, from historical and socio-legal perspectives, in Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, and Zimbabwe; the lives of transgender persons in Asian countries; the evolution, operation and impact of international and domestic refugee laws on sexual orientation and gender identity as grounds for refugee status and asylum; and the conflicts between law, religion and sexual minority equality rights that inhere in the same-sex marriage debate in Ireland. This book was previously published as a special double issue of The International Journal of Human Rights.
Book Synopsis Essentially Equality by : Camilla Barker
Download or read book Essentially Equality written by Camilla Barker and published by Camilla Barker. This book was released on 2011-01-24 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study critically examines the extent to which international legal protection is afforded to sexual minorities. The author assesses definitional elements of sexual minorities and international legal protection, and looks at international measures such as the many United Nations instruments, regional and national instruments such as the European Convention on Human Rights and other measures such as the Yogyakarta Principles and the Brazilian Resolution. It is through these analyses that the author constructively assesses where the strengths and weaknesses of current legal provision are, and identifies recommendations for future legal reform.
Book Synopsis State of the World’s Minorities and Indigenous Peoples 2011 by : Joanna Hoare
Download or read book State of the World’s Minorities and Indigenous Peoples 2011 written by Joanna Hoare and published by Minority Rights Group. This book was released on 2011-07-06 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the year that saw the establishment of UN Women, the new United Nations entity for gender equality and women’s empowerment, minority and indigenous women continued to face violence, discrimination and marginalization, stemming both from their identity as women and as members of disadvantaged minority groups. In Latin America, despite the election of women as heads of state in several countries, African descendant and indigenous women remain virtually invisible in public and political life. They are also the population group that has borne the brunt of armed conflict in the region, subjected to rape and sexual violence. As elsewhere, they have little hope of redress against those who assaulted them. In Europe and Oceania, migrant women face economic and social marginalization, and are often unable to access support services because of their immigration status, leaving them trapped in abusive relationships. In 2010, women belonging to Muslim minorities in the global North choosing to wear the face veil also faced increasing pressure, with bans under discussion in many countries. In the Middle East and Africa, minority and indigenous women continue to be subjected to religious and customary legal systems that deny them their rights, while Iraqi refugee women (many of whom belong to religious minorities) elsewhere in the Middle East are increasingly vulnerable to trafficking and sexual exploitation. In Asia, sexual violence against women has again been used as a weapon against minority women, while land seizures are resulting in further economic marginalization of indigenous groups. This year’s edition of State of the World’s Minorities and Indigenous Peoples presents an overview of the situation of minority and indigenous women today, and includes: - Discussions of gender-based violence and armed conflict, including the violence that indigenous and minority women experience within their own communities, and the difficulties that they face in accessing justice and support from outside. - Consideration of the lack of progress made towards achieving the Millennium Development Goals for minority and indigenous women, with special focus on reproductive rights and maternal mortality. - Interviews and special reports on trafficking, intersectional discrimination, land seizures and women’s political representation. - Overviews of the human rights situation of minorities and indigenous peoples in every major world region. - ‘Peoples Under Threat 2011’ – MRG’s unique statistical analysis and ranking of countries. An invaluable reference for policy makers, academics, journalists and everyone who is interested in the human rights situation of minorities and indigenous peoples around the world.
Book Synopsis Minority Rights, Feminism and International Law by : Silvia Gagliardi
Download or read book Minority Rights, Feminism and International Law written by Silvia Gagliardi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-26 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Investigating minority and indigenous women’s rights in Muslim-majority states, this book critically examines the human rights regime within international law. Based on extensive and diverse ethnographic research on Amazigh women in Morocco, the book unpacks and challenges generally accepted notions of rights and equality. Significantly, and controversially, the book challenges the supposedly ‘emancipatory’ power vested in the human rights project; arguing that rights-based discourses are sites of contestation for different groups that use them to assert their agency in society. More specifically, it shows how the very conditions that make minority and indigenous women instrumental to the preservation of their culture may condemn them to a position of subalternity. In response, and engaging the notion and meaning of Islamic feminism, the book proposes that feminism should be interpreted and contextualised locally in order to be effective and inclusive, and so in order for the human rights project to fully realise its potential to empower the marginalised and make space for their voices to be heard. Providing a detailed, empirically based, analysis of rights in action, this book will be of relevance to scholars, students and practitioners in human rights policy and practice, in international law, minorities’ and indigenous peoples’ rights, gender studies, and Middle Eastern and North African Studies.

Book Synopsis Sexuality, Human Rights, and Public Policy by : Chima J. Korieh
Download or read book Sexuality, Human Rights, and Public Policy written by Chima J. Korieh and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-11-12 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexuality, Human Rights, and Public Policy explores the intersection of public policy, human rights, and sexuality as they relate to inclusion and exclusion across diverse cultural settings. It examines how knowledge is formed and experienced at the intersections of culture, sexuality, race, and other axes of identity. This volume engages an array of questions including how public policy shapes the conceptualization of sexuality and rights and by extension the phenomena of inclusion and exclusion in contemporary society across the world. By evaluating how public discourse is employed to re-inscribe differences of gender, sexuality, and rights of citizens, this book provides a comparative analysis of how these processes and dynamics resemble each other or differ cross-culturally. This book demonstrates that in the realm of sexualities, approached from the ideal of human rights as a predominantly Western notion is increasingly challenged by diverse views and new interpretations of human rights in non-Western societies such as Africa and the Middle East.
Book Synopsis Sexual Orientation: A Human Right by : Eric Heinze
Download or read book Sexual Orientation: A Human Right written by Eric Heinze and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-07-24 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to examine sexual orientation from the viewpoint of international human rights law. It does not simply `create' a platform of rights and argue for their `introduction' in human rights law. Rather, it examines how extant international norms should be construed to include rights against discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, including rights of privacy, equality, speech, expression, and association. It raises questions of cultural relativism, religious faith, social science, and legal theory. It will be of interest to international jurists, human rights organizations, gay rights organizations, constitutional scholars, and anyone interested in expanding the role of international human rights law as a formidable adversary of persecution and discrimination throughout the world.
