| dc.description.notes | "The State of Conflict and Violence in Asia contains accessible, up-to-date, data-driven analyses of historical patterns and current trends in conflict and violence in 14 Asian countries. Designed for government officials and diplomats, scholars, aid and development professionals, business leaders, international affairs and security analysts, and activists, this volume presents a concise overview of the diversity and complexity of conflict and violence in Asia today.<br/ ><br/ >Five emerging patterns<br/ ><br/ >1. Conflict and violence affect every country in Asia, not just those often thought of as conflict-ridden<br/ >2. Asian countries have been relatively successful at managing national contestation, but often at the price of significant subnational and local violence<br/ >3. The politicization of ethnic and religious identities has frequently led to violence and creates major risks for the future.<br/ >4. Development and urbanization will likely increase rather than decrease violence in the coming decade<br/ >5. Gender-based violence is widespread in Asia, and its impacts are greater than previously understood<br/ ><br/ >The chapters in this volume point to the overwhelming pervasiveness of gender-based violence in most Asian countries. In Timor-Leste, for example, 14 percent of all women between the ages of 15 and 49 report being raped. In India, there were 8,342 rapes reported per year between 2009 and 2013, which averages out to roughly 23 women raped every day. Nepal has seen a sharp increase in reported violence against women. Yet the full range and impact of such violence is still unexplored and little understood. Survey data is inconsistent within and between countries, and cultural factors lead to widespread underreporting. As a result, the country chapters do not classify countries by their levels of gender-based violence, although they do suggest countries that deserve particular attention. Better research and data are clearly needed."<br/ ><br/ >See more: https://asiafoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/The_State_of_Conflict_and_Violence_in_Asia-1.pdf | en |
