Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften
978-3-631-84152-5 (ISBN)
It should be essential reading for academics in the fields of law and sociology and vulnerability-oriented practitioners.
lt;p>In an era of almost boundless individual opportunities, vulnerability, paradoxically, has gained significant attention.
Undoubtedly this book significantly contributes to the debates on this very complex phenomenon, dealing with both the specific aspects of vulnerable individuals and groups' legal positions, as well as presenting the concept of vulnerability in international law.
This book brings together scholars engaging with legal and actual positions of women, children and other vulnerable persons. Authors in detail discuss - among others - such issues as: political violence, motherhood in prison, age assessing of foreigners, infanticide or exclusion of the elderly.
It will be of interest for academics in the fields of law and sociology, as well as vulnerability-oriented practitioners.
lt;p>Magdalena Póltorak and Ilona Topa are Assistant Professors of Law at the University of Silesia, Poland. Their research focuses, among others, on legal guarantees of gender equality, international protection of women's rights, human rights law, and transitional justice.
lt;p>The book deals with both the specific aspects of vulnerable individuals and groups' legal positions, as well as presents the concept of vulnerability in international law. It consists of four parts: (1) The concept of vulnerability (2) Women as a particularly vulnerable group (3) Children's (and mothers') vulnerability (4) Other facets of vulnerability.
