Forced Marriage Worldwide

"Forced Marriage Worldwide" presents a groundbreaking examination of a critical human rights crisis affecting millions globally, primarily women and girls who are coerced into unwanted marriages. Through extensive research spanning five continents and drawing from over 200 survivor interviews, the book unveils the complex interplay of cultural, social, and legal factors that perpetuate this form of gender-based violence.

The work stands out for its comprehensive approach, combining statistical analysis with powerful survivor narratives to create a complete picture of this pervasive issue. The book progresses methodically through three main themes: global prevalence patterns, survivor impact, and legal frameworks. It reveals how forced marriage intersects with broader issues such as poverty, educational access, and human trafficking, while examining various forms of coercion from emotional manipulation to physical violence.

Particularly compelling is its exploration of psychological impacts on survivors and the effectiveness of different intervention strategies across various cultural contexts. What makes this work especially valuable is its practical orientation, offering detailed guidance for professionals while maintaining scholarly rigor.

The book bridges theory and practice by providing frameworks for policy development and community engagement strategies, while addressing complex debates about cultural relativism versus universal human rights. Through case studies from regions including South Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Western diaspora communities, it demonstrates how coordinated international response and strong legal frameworks are essential for combating this global challenge.
