| dc.description | This paper examines the intersections of gender, sexuality, and law in northern Namibia from both historical and contemporary perspectives. It explores past and ongoing debates surrounding the significance and cultural meaning of female initiation ceremonies. By analysing these practices, the study contributes to a deeper conceptualisation and theorisation of how law shapes and is shaped by gendered and gendering transformation processes among communities in northern Namibia. | en_US |
