This index is designed to help the reader quickly locate parallel discussions of specific topics in the 62 countries and places contained in this Continuum Complete International Encyclopedia of Sexuality. With this Index, the reader can compare an issue, such as “sexuality education” or “contraception,” in five-dozen countries. It also guides the reader to issues and topics that are peculiar to certain cultures or countries. Sexual harassment, for instance, is a major issue in European and North American countries, but is hardly or not at all recognized in some South American, African, Eastern European, and Asian societies. Similarly, female circumcision, and woman-woman, arranged, and levirate marriages are issues in a few countries, but not in others. Although this Index is a handy guide to all major issues, it is not comprehensive because of the obvious human limitations of the Editors and equally obvious limitations of space. This Index can be used in conjunction with the outline of the main topics provided on the first page of all chapters. A familiarity with the detailed content outline given in the section, “How to Use This Encyclopedia,” in the front of this book, will also help the reader pursue specific information, since all chapters are structured on this detailed outline.

[Note from the CCIES Website Editor:  This index is now hyperlinked to the appropriate sections in all of the various countries. The page numbers listed refer to the print edition of the CCIES. We have made some adjustments from the original printed index in the book as we found errors during the hyperlinking process. Thus, this version is more accurate than the original. We hope this helps readers find the specific information they are seeking. Of course, within each country, one can use the browser’s ctrl-F find text function to search for specific instances of a term. Note that the links to terms in the U.S.A. chapter will go to the single-file version of that country, and not to the lower-bandwidth version, when it is available, that will be split into two files. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.   —Raymond J. Noonan, Ph.D.]
