Honour Killing: Roots and Remedies: A Global View

 
Rao Arif Ali Khan (Editor)
Synopsis

In our modern society the new menace of honour killing, also known as customary killing, is the murder of a family or clan member by one or more fellow family members, in which the perpetrators and potentially, the wider community believe the victim to have brought dishonour upon the family, clan, or community. The perceived dishonour is normally, the result of certain behaviours or the suspicion of such behaviours.
