CEDAW語境下的婦女財產權
摘要：
40多年來，消除對婦女歧視委員會（CEDAW Committee）一直致力於建構《消除對婦女一切形式歧視公約》（CEDAW）中關於國家義務的法理框架。在CEDAW框架下，締約國有義務保護婦女在親密關係、家庭權利（包括繼承權）、土地權、適當住房權、金融信貸權、社會福利權、知識產權中的平等權利以及有賴於平等訴諸司法的其他經濟權利。本書認為，《消除對婦女一切形式歧視公約》對「財產」的重新定義，儘管存在缺陷且仍在發展中，但它對世界上那一半更有可能被視作財產而非擁有財產的人而言，具有產生變革的潛力。

HKU CCL Public Lecture:
Women’s Property Rights under CEDAW
For over 40 years, the leading international treaty body on women's rights, the Committee on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (the CEDAW Committee), has been generating jurisprudence interpreting CEDAW's obligations that states protect the equal rights of women in relationships; family rights, including inheritance; rights to land, adequate housing, financial credit, social benefits, intellectual property, and other economic rights dependent on equal access to justice. This book concludes that CEDAW's re-engendering of property—although a flawed and evolving work in progress—has the potential to be transformative for the half of the planet who is more likely to be treated as property than to have any.
