Product Information

Domestic Violence and the Law in Colonial and Postcolonial Africa reveals the ways in which domestic space and domestic relationships take on different meanings in African contexts that extend the boundaries of family obligation, kinship, and dependency. The term domestic violence encompasses kin-based violence, marriage-based violence, gender-based violence, as well as violence between patrons and clients who shared the same domestic space. As a lived experience and as a social and historical unit of analysis, domestic violence in colonial and postcolonial Africa is complex. Using evidence drawn from Sub-saharan Africa, the chapters explore the range of domestic violence in Africa's colonial past and its present, including taxation and the insertion of the household into the broader structure of colonial domination. African histories of domestic violence demand that scholars and activists refine the terms and analyses and pay attention to the historical legacies of contemporary problems. This collection brings into conversation historical, anthropological, legal, and activist perspectives on domestic violence in Africa and fosters a deeper understanding of the problem of domestic violence, the limits of international human rights conventions, and local and regional efforts to address the issue.

Reviews
"This is a fascinating and extensively researched exploration of a range of forms of gender-based violence that combines historical, anthropological, and legal perspectives. One of its strengths is the way it juxtaposes studies of the legal regulation of violence in the colonial era with that of the postcolonial human rights era."--Sally Engle Merry, author of Human Rights and Gender Violence: Translating International Law into Local Justice, "This is a fascinating and extensively researched exploration of a range of forms of gender-based violence that combines historical, anthropological, and legal perspectives.

(T)his collection is an important opening call for future research into the topic of domestic violence and African family/household histories.... This book will not only be widely appealing to scholars, but could also serve as a useful supplementary text in a number of undergraduate courses."-- International Journal of African Historical Studies, "For several decades, scholars have effectively mined trial transcripts and other legal sources for innovative perspectives in social history. Despite subjective testimony and other limitations, such documents contain direct evidence from otherwise voiceless, obscure people. This book continues that trend, revealing the experiences of targets and perpetrators of intimate, private violence.... Summing Up: Recommended."-- CHOICE
