Honor Killing Practices

'Honor Killing Practices' presents a comprehensive examination of honor-based violence as a critical human rights issue, exploring how these deadly practices persist in modern society despite global advancement. The book navigates the complex intersection of cultural traditions, legal frameworks, and human rights, offering both scholarly analysis and practical solutions for addressing this challenging social phenomenon.

Drawing from extensive field research across multiple continents, the work reveals how honor killings have evolved from tribal customs to contemporary manifestations, supported by both quantitative data and compelling case studies. The book's unique strength lies in its interdisciplinary approach, connecting legal studies, anthropology, and gender studies to provide a holistic understanding of the issue.

Through systematic exploration of sociocultural foundations, legal responses, and prevention strategies, readers gain insight into how these practices become embedded in community structures and why they resist change. The book progresses logically from foundational concepts to practical applications, making it valuable for both academics and practitioners. It combines statistical analysis with firsthand accounts from law enforcement and social workers, while addressing current debates about cultural relativism versus universal human rights.

Most importantly, it offers evidence-based frameworks for policy development and community intervention, providing essential tools for professionals working to combat gender-based violence and promote sustainable social change.
