Summary

"Social Change, Gender and Violence explores the impact of transition from communism and war on the everyday life of women and men, as well as the ways in which everyday life and gender-related changes affect women's vulnerability to domestic violence and trafficking in women. The book also explores the impact of micro-level changes on the development of civil society, women's movement, and legal and policy changes regarding violence against women."--Jacket.
