Item description from seller

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2016 in the subject Women Studies / Gender Studies, grade: A, Georgetown University, course: Leadership and Advocacy for Women Rights, language: English, abstract: In December 2013, South Sudan plunged into a massive scale of violence because of the outbreak of conflict between the Sudan Liberation Army and the Sudan People Liberation Movement. The fight took an ethnic turn as soldiers from the country's largest groups, the Dinka, and Nuer, divided their loyalties to either President Kiir or Mr. Machar respectively.

Old women from the enemy's ethnic group are raped in order to make it clear to the enemy that they are incapable of protecting their mothers. The goal is to make the enemy feel emasculated, but women suffer the direct consequence. Women who refuse to be raped are shot through their private parts, and even those who are pregnant are forced into sexual intercourse. Some women become pregnant by their rapist.…
