Abstract
Considers global patterns of violence against women, including assault, beating, circumcision and rape, and calls for a greater recognition of these violations of human rights. Some of these abuses are inbuilt by cultural tradition, and the author argues for a restructuring of the many frameworks (including legal and economic aspects) which impose inequality on women throughout the world. -P.Hardiman
