Title | Women as Slaves of Others: Violence Against Women Through the Lens of the European Court of Human Rights |
Summary | The capstone project investigates three forms of violence against women: intersectional discrimination, rape and femicide. These forms are explored through the social and legal lens. The main social lens applied is Simone de Beauvoir’s concept of ‘women as other’, together with the concept of ‘interse ctionality 19; and concept of ‘feminicide.’ The legal framework that is used for the analysis is the case-law of the European Court of Human Rights and legal standards that the Court made. My aim is to explore several forms of women's oppression and the interdependency of the social and legal framework. Further, my aim is to identify the gaps between legal protection, its implementation and reality. Also, I will present which changes and legal recognition of violence case-law has brought. Lastly, my aim is to give policy recommendations and to raise awareness of these injustices and my voice through the practical part: the BLOG platform. The platform will serve as a channel of advocacy for women's rights and as a platform for women's empowerment. |
