Gender, Criminalization, Imprisonment and Human Radershipights in Southeast Asia
- Share to:
In this introductory chapter, we discuss the impetus for this edited
book. We
introduce
activist,
critical and feminist criminological
theorizing and research
on gender,
intersectionality,
criminalization,
and carceral
experiences.
The scene is set for
the chapters
to
follow
by
providing
a general
overview
of
gender,
criminalization,
imprisonment,
and human rights in Southeast Asia with particular
attention
being paid to Indonesia, Malaysia,
Cambodia, Thailand,
Myanmar,
and the Philippines.
We
consider trends
and drivers
of
women’s
imprisonment
in
the
region,
against
the
backdrop
of
the
United
Nations
Rules
for
the Treatment
of
Women
Prisoners and Non-Custodial
Measures
for
Women
Offenders,
also known
as the Bangkok
Rules,
which
were
adopted by
the United Nations
General
Assembly
just over
a
decade ago.
We
reflect
on the dominance of
western
centric feminist
(and malestream) criminological works on gender, criminalization and
imprisonment, the positioning of Southeast Asian knowledge on the
peripheries of Asian criminology and the importance of bringing to
light, as this book does, gendered activist scholarship in this region of
the world.
