segala bentuk kekerasan, terutama kekerasan dalam rumah tangga, merupakan pelanggaran hak asasi manusia dan
kejahatan terhadap martabat kemanusiaan,
serta bentuk diskriminasi yang harus dihapus;
Kekerasan terhadap perempuan terjadi di seluruh belahan dunia, dalam semua tingkat sosio-ekonomi dan pendidikan. Tanpa memandang budaya dan agama. Kekerasan terhadap perempuan ini memiliki banyak bentuk, mulai dari kekerasan domestik dan perkosaan hingga pernikahan di usia muda dan penyunatan. Semua kekerasan yang terjadi itu merupakan pelanggaran atas hak manusia yang paling asasi.

Empowerment and Resistance Strategies of Working Women in Turkey: The Case of 1960--70 Graduates of the Girls' Institutes

ABSTRACT This article deals with the empowerment and resistance
strategies used by working women in Turkey. In order to explore the ways
in which gender ideologies are produced and resisted, a very specific
group of women were studied using life history and focus group interviews.
The interviews were conducted with women who had graduated
between 1960 and 1970 from Girls’ Institutes. The Girls’ Institutes were
all-female high schools and the curriculum of these institutes was particularly
geared towards modern domestic, or homemaking skills. However,
despite the notion of producing modern women for the domestic sphere,
most of the graduates have chosen to work outside their homes. Of these
working women some have remained single, some have not had children.
These outcomes present a paradox. The article focuses on the resolution
of these paradoxes, the power and resistance manoeuvres that women
employ and their relationship to the processes of modernization and
westernization in Turkey.

Como recorte temporal, elegeu-se o período histórico compreendido entre a fundação da Escola (1946) e a promulgação das Leis de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional (1961), a qual influenciou de modo decisivo na educação do país e interferiu no sistema de ensino até então adotado na instituição. No tocante aos aspectos metodológicos, além da pesquisa documental junto aos arquivos da escola, buscou-se investigar, através da análise de relatos de alunas egressas dos referidos cursos, como a formação profissionalizante obtida na instituição influenciou as atividades profissionais das entrevistadas, mas, também nos papéis sociais exercidos pelas mesmas. A metodologia adotada, de cunho qualitativo, foi a da história de oral, através de entrevistas semi-estruturadas com ex-alunas e/ou ex-professoras da escola, no intuito de obter das narrativas subsídios para uma análise da formação técnica e profissionalizante feminina no Rio Grande do Sul. O conjunto de resultados obtidos apontaram para uma possível dupla função vinculada a esta modalidade de ensino técnico profissionalizante, a saber: a construção do perfil socialmente projetado para as alunas como o “ideal de uma boa mulher”, mas, também, sua possibilidade de ingresso no mundo do trabalho, através de sua qualificação profissional, ampliando, em certa medida, seus “limites de atuação” para além do espaço doméstico-privado.

The Persistent Gender Disparity in Student Note Publication

This Article presents original empirical research documenting a significant gender disparity in student note publication. Examination of the notes published during a ten-year time span in the general-interest law reviews at fifty-two schools - a total of nearly six thousand notes - reveals that women authored approximately forty percent of student notes, while men published almost sixty percent. At thirteen schools, women authored fewer than thirty-five percent of published student notes. The Article proposes a range of explanations for the disparity, recognizing that the explanation may differ from one school to the next and from one year to the next at the same school. Moreover, the Article argues that the disparity matters: it has negative consequences for women’s careers years after graduation from law school. Consequently, the Article concludes by offering some preliminary ideas about what law students, law reviews, and faculty members might do to remedy the gender disparity, and by encouraging stakeholders in the note publication process to continue the conversation within their institutions.
