Description

Leyla Pervizat argues that honour killings are a form of extrajudicial execution which can only be challenged by looking at its socio-political and economic contexts. Focusing on honour crimes in Turkey, she provides an holistic, interdisciplinary analysis of a large number of legal and non-legal cases, international human rights mechanisms, and initiatives to combat the issue. This study is essential to furthering understanding of honour killings in indigenous and diaspora communities around the world - and identifies hope for eradicating this difficult and culturally-ingrained practice.

Author Biography:

She is a member of the women's non-governmental organisation, Ba?kent Kadin Platformu, the Amnesty International Turkey Section Women's Rights Group and the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF)
