英文简介:
SUMMARY: From two of our most fiercely moral voices, a passionate call to arms against our era’s most pervasive human rights violation: the oppression of women and girls in the developing world.
With Pulitzer Prize winners Nicholas D.
Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn as our guides, we undertake an odyssey through Africa and Asia to meet the extraordinary women struggling there, among them a Cambodian teenager sold into sex slavery and an Ethiopian woman who suffered devastating injuries in childbirth.
Drawing on the breadth of their combined reporting experience, Kristof and WuDunn depict our world with anger, sadness, clarity, and, ultimately, hope.
They show how a little help can transform the lives of women and girls abroad.
That Cambodian girl eventually escaped from her brothel and, with assistance from an aid group, built a thriving retail business that supports her family.
The Ethiopian woman had her injuries repaired and in time became a surgeon.
A Zimbabwean mother of five, counseled to return to school, earned her doctorate and became an expert on AIDS.
Through these stories, Kristof and WuDunn help us see that the key to economic progress lies in unleashing women’s potential.
They make clear how so many people have helped to do just that, and how we can each do our part.
Throughout much of the world, the greatest unexploited economic resource is the female half of the population.
Countries such as China have prospered precisely because they emancipated women and brought them into the formal economy.
Unleashing that process globally is not only the right thing to do; it’s also the best strategy for fighting poverty.
Deeply felt, pragmatic, and inspirational, “Half the Sky” is essential reading for every global citizen.
中文简介:
摘要：我们两个最强烈的道德声音，热情地呼吁武装起来反对我们这个时代最普遍的侵犯人权行为：发展中国家对妇女和女童的压迫。
在普利策奖获得者尼古拉斯·D·克里斯托夫和谢丽尔·吴邓恩的指导下，我们踏上了穿越非洲和亚洲的旅程，去见识在那里奋斗的杰出女性，其中包括一名被卖为性奴的柬埔寨青少年和一名在分娩时遭受严重伤害的埃塞俄比亚妇女。
克里斯托夫和吴邓凭借他们丰富的报道经验，用愤怒、悲伤、清晰和最终的希望描绘了我们的世界。
它们展示了一点帮助如何可以改变国外妇女和女孩的生活。
那个柬埔寨女孩最终逃离了妓院，并在一个援助组织的帮助下，建立了一家蓬勃发展的零售企业来养活她的家人。
这位埃塞俄比亚妇女的伤势得到了修复，并最终成为了一名外科医生。
一位津巴布韦五个孩子的母亲在建议重返校园后获得了博士学位，并成为艾滋病专家。
通过这些故事，克里斯托夫和吴邓让我们看到，经济进步的关键在于释放女性的潜力。
他们清楚地表明了这么多人如何帮助做到这一点，以及我们每个人如何尽自己的一份力量。
在世界大部分地区，最大的未开发经济资源是占人口一半的女性。
中国等国家的繁荣正是因为它们解放了妇女并将她们带入正规经济。
在全球范围内释放这一进程不仅是正确的事情，而且是正确的事情。
这也是消除贫困的最佳策略。
《半边天》感人至深、务实、励志，是每个全球公民的必读书目。
