Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Contents: Preface. 1. Beyond the liberal Dilemma rights as trumps as recognition and as capability. 2. The right to meditation recognising the cultural particularity of interests and vulnerabilities. 3. Plural autonomy force endorsement and cultural diversity. 4. Ordering souls without intolerance towards a constrained presumption for educational accommodation. 5. Unveiling meditation and autonomy womens rights as citizenship and reciprocity. Epilogue.

It also responds to a deep suspicion about invoking a political discourse that is accused of being either eurocentric androcentric or both. In this book Monica Mookherjee draws on Iris Youngs idea of gender as seriality in order to reconfigure feminism in a way that responds to cultural diversity. She contends that a discourse of rights can be formulated and that this task is crucial to negotiating a balance between womens interests and multicultural claims. The argument is worked through in the context of a set of difficult dilemmas in modern liberal democracies: The resurgence of the feminist controversy over the Hindu practice of widow immolation sati. Gender discriminatory Muslim divorce laws in the famous Shah Bano controversy in India. Forced marriage in South Asian communities in the UK. The rights of evangelical Christian parents to exempt their children from secular education. The recent controversy about the rights of Muslim girls to war the Hijab in state schools in France.
