Document from the year 2019 in the subject Law - Comparative Legal Systems, Comparative Law, , language: English, abstract: Attaching premium to the rights of women and their enforcement in Kenya, the scope of this book is calibrated on both the philosophies surrounding the existence of the various rights of women, their enforcement and realization. In the above context, the book seeks to foster understanding on the following topical issues - concept of gender parity; concept of gender legislation; feminism theory; reproductive rights of women; women’s property rights in Kenya; and the existence, practice and rights of women living in woman to woman marriages.Gender equality, defined as a numerical concept denotes real or relative numerical and proportional equality of girls and boys and women and men. To address the gender inequalities as a measure to the attainment of the desired equality, the place and operation of legislation has been considered as key. The book also studies jurisprudence on enforcement of reproductive rights in Kenya. Defined as a person’s rights relating to the control of his or her procreative activities, the book queries the numerous cluster of liberties relating to pregnancy, abortion, and sterilization especially the personal bodily rights of women among others. The book tests the woman concern in the making of reproductive decisions free from discrimination, coercion, or violence. As a highly contentious matter in the women rights campaign, the book studies the regime of property ownership in Kenya with specific regards to the rights of women to own, use and dispose property. The book examines Kenya’s jurisprudence to elicit the court’s and feminists’ perspectives in advancing the woman concern. Lastly, the book writes on a silent topical issue of woman to woman marriage which unlike lesbianism, is a practice where a woman marries another woman and assumes control over her and her offspring for the purpose of child bearing. The book finds out the broad features of woman to woman marriage and the dispute resolution process in this institution. Subsequently, the law governing woman to woman marriages and the nature of disputes relating to woman to woman marriage is also subjected into discussion.

This book makes a significant contribution to the ongoing global conversations on the various understandings of equality. It illuminates the many ways in which diverse equality guarantees clash, or are interrelated. It also sets out principled approaches on how they can be coherently interpreted to address the myriad inequalities in Kenya. Taking a comparative approach, the book considers how other jurisdictions including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, South Africa, India and Botswana have approached the conceptualisation, interpretation and application of various equality concepts. The book focuses on important issues such as: - transformative constitutionalism in relation to the interpretation of Kenya's 2010 Constitution; - expanding the list of enumerated grounds for non-discrimination; - affirmative action; - accommodating religious and cultural diversity versus gender equality; - the interrelation between socio-economic rights and status-based equality.
