E-raamat: Grievance Formation, Rights and Remedies: Involuntary Sterilisation and Castration in the Nordics, 1930s-2020s

'Alaattinolu's book is essential reading for anyone interested in the regulation of reproductive health. Sterilisation and castration have been used as means of eugenic population control and as restrictions to gender recognition. In both respects, it is important to understand the legal and social processes that have led to their abolition.' Johanna Niemi, University of Helsinki 'That we have had to wait for so long to have a book like this is a mystery. The Nordic countries, often taken to showcase gender equality milestones, are finally under scrutiny for their serious violations of reproductive rights with practices such as castration and forced sterilization of those considered deviant and unworthy. International law, too, so poorly equipped to respond to such expropriation of the reproductive capacity, under review. Thorough, textured, precise, and much needed.' Ruth Rubio-Marķn, University of Seville 'This is an important contribution to the discussion of trans rights, law and legal theory. While focused on the Nordic countries, this book should be read by everyone that has an interest in human rights and remedies against violations of human rights.' Mårten Schultz, Stockholm University 'An equally excellent book for scholars and practitioners interested in gender and law, as it is for those interested in legal history and detailed analysis of the interaction between national, regional and international law.'
