Book Synopsis Prisoners of Ritual by : Hanny Lightfoot-Klein
Download or read book Prisoners of Ritual written by Hanny Lightfoot-Klein. This book was released on 1989. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique volume focuses on the psychosexual and social effects of female genital mutilation, an ancient, deeply entrenched custom saturating the larger part of Africa. Over a period of six years, Author Hanny Lightfoot-Klein trekked through outlying areas of Sudan, Kenya, and Egypt, where she lived with a number of African families. What she learned by way of in-depth personal interviews and firsthand observation has enabled her to add a previously unknown and often astonishing dimension to our knowledge of ritual practices and human sexuality. This valuable book will be extremely helpful to professionals and scholars in women's studies, social psychology, psychotherapy, psychiatry, gynecology, sexology, as well as cross-cultural and African studies. It should also interest anyone who is concerned with male circumcision in the United States.

Book Synopsis Confronting Female Genital Mutilation by : Marie-Hélène Mottin-Sylla
Download or read book Confronting Female Genital Mutilation written by Marie-Hélène Mottin-Sylla. This book was released on 2011-07-14. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excision, or female genital mutilation (FGM), in Africa is no longer the private concern only of women; it is a social and political issue that concerns both men and women and this book reports on an innovative research and action project amongst girls and boys in Burkina Faso, Mali, and Senegal. The project explores whether young people's use of information technology could contribute to the abandonment of FGM. In the age of the internet, beliefs and practices of FGM are shifting, particularly among young people. The results of this project show how, in the era of globalized citizenship, a cross-sectional vision that puts young people and gender at the center of development can produce real change.
