This guide explores the complex relationship between women's rights, children's rights, and societal configurations. It questions the separation of women's rights as a distinct category and examines how their bodies and rights are shaped in relation to their children, spouses, and property. It investigates cultural constraints and the goal of formal equality in women's lobbying for rights protection. The guide also discusses the outcomes and achievements of the Beijing Conference and the North/South divide in the International Women's Movement.
