520 _a"Given the importance of women to economic development and democratization--both of which are key U.S. foreign policy objectives--Washington must promote their rights more aggressively." (FOREIGN AFFAIRS) The author argues that the United States should more actively promote women's rights, especially in the Middle East, sub-Saharan Africa and southern Asia, because it not only helps to "foster democracy, but also to promote development, curb extremism, and fight terrorism."
