Women's Rights and Religious Practice

Claims in Conflict

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The author looks at conflicts between human rights for women and religious integrity, through family religious ideology and questions of relativism, privacy and agency. The study shows that theological resistance and political and social inhibitors can, ironically, make the human rights concept inappropriate for gaining rights for religious women.
