This thesis explores the causes and consequences of gender inequality in Pakistan. With
a feminist and anthropological lens, it aims to look at the political, social, and economic
struggles of women. The historical background of the current gap in gender equality will be
explored. The cultural concept of patriarchy will be analysed in relation to different forms of
violence against women, e.g., cultural, structural, and direct violence, but also social, political,
and economic violence. In conclusion, the study suggests that patriarchal structures are the root
cause for gender inequality and gender-based violence. Within the last part of the thesis, a
solution space is opened, that introduces different approaches to diminish the struggles of
women. The capability approach is proposed as an extended version of human rights that offers
a powerful philosophical frame, however, its implementation in the reality displays limitations.
Women’s activism (female agency) and education remains a key part in the fight for gender
equality. [-]
