Details: This book on the world's widows has primarily been written to convince the United Nations that the exploitation, torture and humiliation of widows the world over and the stress that their children are put to is a human rights issue. And, therefore, the UN must treat them as victims of human rights violations. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the state of widows, the causes for their deprivation, and its effects on their dependents. It also shows how laws have failed and customs and old beliefs continue to torment widows, especially in the developing world. The book also seeks to make an appeal to the UN to set up an exclusive agency for widows to help them fight discrimination. It also presents various ways of empowering these hapless women so that they can get out of the clutches of their tormentors and be able to live independently and give their children a future on the planet.
