  • Durchbruch Des Fundamentalismus? Ein Neues Gesicht Der Orthodoxie Im Judentum Ungarns
    Larissza Hrotkó Durchbruch des Fundamentalismus? Ein neues Gesicht der Orthodoxie im Judentum Ungarns DEUTSCH ABSTRACT Am Beispiel des gegenwärtigen ungarischen Judentums behandelt dieser Beitrag den religiösen Fundamentalismus als eine moderne gesellschaft- liche und kulturelle Erscheinung. Theologisch gesehen kann der Funda- mentalismus auch als eine patriarchale Protestbewegung betrachtet wer- den, die die religiöse Tradition im Interesse der Machterhaltung miss- braucht. Die Orthodoxie nimmt im fundamentalistischen Konzept einen besonderen Platz ein. Sie kann sich manchmal den Verhältnissen und Bedürfnissen moderner europäischer Gesellschaften anpassen und ein frauenfreund liches, ja sogar demokratisches Gesicht zeigen. Diese Form der Ortho doxie wird im Artikel als Neo-Orthodoxie bezeichnet. Die De- mokratie in einer neo-orthodoxen Gemeinschaft ist aber nur eine schein- bare, denn die wirkliche Macht konzentriert sich bei den Rabbinern, die entscheiden, wieviel Freiheit den Mitgliedern der Gemeinschaft und ins- besondere den Frauen zugestanden wird. Zurzeit scheinen der Einfluss der jüdischen Neo-Orthodoxie und somit die Gefahr des Durchbruchs des Fun- damentalismus in Ungarn zu steigen. Die nicht-orthodoxen jüdischen Ge- meinschaften sind dagegen nicht aktiv genug und beschäftigen sich wenig mit der Stärkung ihrer eigenen jüdischen Identität. ENGLISH A fundamentalist revolution?

    In landmark ruling, El Al ordered to end policy of asking women to move seats | The Times of Israel 6/22/17, 153 PM THE TIMES OF ISRAEL | www.timesofisrael.com In landmark ruling, El Al ordered to end policy of asking women to move seats Holocaust survivor Renee Rabinowitz wins suit against Israel’s national carrier over flight attendants’ request she change places after ultra- Orthodox man refused to sit beside her BY RAOUL WOOTLIFF June 22, 2017, 6:08 am srael’s national carrier, El Al, can no longer accede to the requests of ultra-Orthodox passengers not to sit next to women, a Jerusalem court said Wednesday in a landmark I ruling. “Under absolutely no circumstances can a crew member ask a passenger to move from their designated seat because the adjacent passenger doesn’t wasn’t to sit next to them due to their gender,” Jerusalem Magistrate’s Court Judge Dana Cohen-Lekah said in her ruling. “The policy is a direct transgression of the law preventing discrimination.” El Al has been known to regularly ask passengers to move seats at the request and sometimes demand of ultra-Orthodox men who refuse to sit next to women. Wednesday’s ruling ends years of uproar over the policy led by rights groups who say it is discriminatory. Cohen-Lekah agreed with the Israel Religious Action Center, which brought the suit, in ruling the practice was illegal. The chief plaintiff in the case was 81-year old Holocaust survivor Renee Rabinowitz, who sued the airline for discrimination after a flight attendant asked her to move seats on a flight in December 2015.

  • Is It Permissible for Men and Women to Sit Next to Each Other on an Airplane?
    Is it Permissible for Men and Women to Sit Next to Each Other on an Airplane? Byline: Rabbi Shimshon Nadel Page 1 by Rabbi Shimshon Nadel (the article first appeared in OU Israel's Torah Tidbits in hisweekly column, "Medina & Halacha."http://www.ttidbits.com/1282/1282rnadel.pdf) It was announced last week that El Al, Israel's national carrier, will remove any passenger who refuses to sit next to another passenger for any reason. The announcement comes following an incident just days prior, when a flight from New York to Israel was delayed by more than an hour after four religious men refused to sit in their assigned seats next to women. The story ‘went viral,’ and in response, a large tech company threatened to boycott the airline, prompting El Al's decision. In June 2017, just one year ago, a Jerusalem court ruled that airline employees cannot ask women to change seats after Renee Rabinowitz, a woman in her 80's, sued El Al for making her change her seat on a 2015 flight from Newark to Tel Aviv. Those of us who travel frequently are quite familiar with the following scene: Delayed departures as the cabin crew attempts to accommodate male passengers who refuse to sit next to women, claiming Jewish Law does not allow for it. But is it permissible for a man to sit next to a woman according to Jewish Law? It is prohibited for a man to touch a woman who is forbidden to him. In the context of forbidden relationships, the Torah instructs: “…Do not come close to uncovering Ervah” (Vayikra 18:6).

  • The Impact of the Judicial Precedents on the Normative Content of Human Rights1
    Pobrane z czasopisma Studia Iuridica Lublinensia http://studiaiuridica.umcs.pl Data: 26/09/2021 08:25:36 Part 1. Studia Iuridica Lublinensia vol. XXVII, 1, 2018 DOI: 10.17951/sil.2018.27.1.45 Tadeusz Biernat Andrzej Frycz Modrzewski Kraków University, Poland [email protected] The Impact of the Judicial Precedents on the Normative Content of Human Rights1 Wpływ precedensu na treść normatywną praw człowieka SUMMARY The major objective of this article is to emphasise the importance and the role of precedent – understood in broad terms – in forming the normative reality, exerting an impact on the content of normative elements, including human rights, particularly women’s rights. Being an essential part of the normative reality, precedents are a particular kind of normative messages of a considerable power. Taken into account their narrative form, comprehensiveness of the content, media hype and possibilities of a mass broadcasting, precedents constitute an important element and play a significant role in forming the normative reality, which is characteristic for the present-day society. Being a phe- nomenon characteristic for a post-modernist society, the normative reality is understood in contrast to static conceptions of a normative or axionormative order, which have a given structure and distinct boundaries. The analysis of precedent rulings, stemming from various law orders, regarding women’s equal rights in the employmentUMCS process, aims at highlighting their importance both in forming the content of human rights and their impact on law and law enactment. Keywords: precedent; normative approach; human rights; women’s rights The main aim of this article2 is to point out the role and the importance of widely understood precedents in shaping the normative space and its elements, among them human rights, and particularly women’s rights3.

Sexual Hostility a Mile High Michelle L.D. Hanlon* I. INTRODUCTION On October 21, 2016, the United Nations designated “the character of Wonder Woman . as Honorary Ambassador for the Empowerment of Women and Girls.”1 The irony was not lost on United Nations staff who strenuously objected to the elevation and presumed adulation of a comic book character who is most commonly depicted as “a large breasted, white woman of impossible proportions, scantily clad in a shimmery, thigh-baring body suit with an American flag motif and knee high boots—the epitome of a ‘pin-up’ girl.”2 Sadly, it seems in the eyes of the global community, a fictitious caricature of a woman is more inspiring than, for example, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Hewlett-Packard Chief Executive Meg Whitman,3 any of the diverse group of sixty women who have flown in space, or, for that matter, a middle-class working woman like a flight attendant, who trains arduously to assure the safety of the flying public.
