Synopsis
This book presents a concise yet comprehensive exploration of sexual harassment, combining theoretical frameworks, legal analysis, and policy evaluation. The book begins by unpacking the core concept of sexual harassment and introduces key models such as Quid Pro Quo and Hostile Work Environment. It delves into the socio-cultural and institutional factors contributing to the persistence and growth of harassment in workplaces, academic spaces, and public life. Drawing from multiple disciplines, the book provides a scholarly foundation for understanding how sexual harassment is defined, perceived, and challenged.
A distinguishing feature of the book is its focus on landmark judicial decisions that have shaped legal responses, especially within the Indian context, while also examining international laws and conventions. The comparative approach helps readers appreciate the global dimensions of the issue. The final section addresses policy implications, offering insights into institutional responsibilities and the effectiveness of current mechanisms for prevention and redressal. Designed for students, researchers, and professionals in law, gender studies, and public policy, this book serves as a critical academic resource that bridges theory and practice in addressing one of the most pressing issues of contemporary society.
