This volume is the fully revised and updated version of the first comprehensive commentary on the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and its Optional Protocol. It reflects the developments during the decade following the publication of the first edition in 2012, which has also seen a notable rise in individual complaints (more than 85), ten new General Recommendations, and six new inquiry procedures as well as numerous statements, partly in conjunction with other UN human rights bodies. The Convention is a key international human rights instrument and the only one exclusively addressed to women. It has been described as the United Nations' 'landmark treaty in the struggle for women's rights'. At a time when the backlash against women's human rights and the concept of gender-based discrimination is increasingly challenged by governments and powerful societal actors, the Commentary is an important instrument to hold all state powers to account on their international obligations under the Convention.

The Commentary analyses the interpretation of the Convention through the work of its monitoring body, the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women. It comprises detailed analyses of the Preamble and each article of the Convention and of the Optional Protocol, including a separate chapter on the cross-cutting substantive issue of violence against women. The sources relied on are the treaty language and the general recommendations, concluding observations, and case law under the Optional Protocol (individual complaints and inquiries), through which the Committee has interpreted and applied the Convention. Each chapter is self-contained, but the Commentary is conceived of as an integral whole. The book also includes an introduction which provides an overview of the Convention and its embedding in the international law of human rights as well as the most recent challenges to women's human rights worldwide.

Perfect for privacy!

This 3 panel room divider came in in good shape. I am pleased with how it looks. It feels a little cheap, but I was aware of that from the reviews I read. I really like the dual hinges, which is one main reason I went with this one. I also got this one for the 3 panels and the black color. I plan to use it to give the guest rooms a little privacy for when they get up to go to the restroom. I took a few pictures when I was playing around with it and attached those.

Exactly what I was looking for.
Color: Brown, Size: 3 Panel, Color: Brown, Size: 3 Panel
Although other reviews found this item was too lightweight and flimsy, frankly it was exactly what I was looking for. I needed to partition my workspace off from the rest of the room and I wanted something that I could easily attach to the back of an unfinished bookcase as part of creating a private space. It was perfect. Lightweight easy to handle and I didn't mind putting some nails through it. Great price point for what I needed.
