  • Women's Rights Unveiled: Taliban's Treatment of Women in Afghanistan
    WOMEN'S RIGHTS UNVEILED: TALIBAN'S TREATMENT OF WOMEN IN AFGHANISTAN I. INTRODUCTION I have four children. Life is very difficult under the Taliban, especially because of what they have done to women. During the past year, I have been out of my house only three times, always accompanied by a male family member, or my husband. Once, I went to the baker's [sic]. There I saw another woman. She was picking up some bread, and her sleeves moved up her arms a bit, and a Talib came and beat her. I became very afraid, and I ran away. My house in Afghanistan is not very big. It has two rooms, one bathroom, and a kitchen. All the day, I am inside the house, doing housework-cooking, washing, cleaning, things like this. My husband is a shopkeeper. We have a courtyard, so sometimes I can go outside and feel the sun on my face. It is surrounded by a high wall, so no one can see in. I do not see my women friends. If the women have the time to go outside, the male members of the family don't have time to escort them, or don't want to. So we all stay in our houses.' It is hard for people in other countries to believe that we women in Afghanistan are beaten everyday by the Taliban. The sadness in our story is endless. I know that they [the Taliban] beat us, lash us, and lock us in our homes all because they want to destroy the dignity of women.

  • Women Oppressed in the Name of Culture and Religion Saudi Arabia and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women
    MALMÖ UNIVERSITY HR 61‐90 GLOBAL AND POLITICAL STUDIES AUTUMN 2010 HUMAN RIGHTS SUPERVISOR: ANNA BRUCE Women oppressed in the name of culture and religion Saudi Arabia and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women Elin Andersson & Linn Togelius Abstract In Saudi Arabia women are legal minors who need permission from a male guardian in, among others, matters concerning education, employment and health care. Despite the obvious subordination of women in the country, Saudi Arabia has ratified the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, with a reservation saying that in cases of contradiction between the Convention and Islamic law they do not obligate themselves to follow the rules of the Convention. Respecting the culture, tradition and religion of non-western societies is important in the work with implementing international human rights. However, in the case of Saudi Arabia, it seems like the cultural and religious claims merely function as justification of an institutional oppression of women. This institutional practice of oppression is unique and taken to the extreme, but oppression of women in itself is a global phenomenon, which is not connected to a specific culture. Key words: Saudi Arabia, CEDAW, women’s rights, Feminism, Cultural Relativism, Islamic law 1 Contents 1 Introduction ............................................................................................................................. 4 1.2 Aim and research questions .............................................................................................

  • 2254 Last December, While the National Organization for Women
    SAUDI COURTS — WOMEN’S RIGHTS — GENERAL COURT OF QATIF SENTENCES GANG-RAPE VICTIM TO PRISON AND LASH- INGS FOR VIOLATING “ILLEGAL MINGLING” LAW. Last December, while the National Organization for Women (NOW) celebrated the success of its campaign for “non-sexist car in- surance,”1 a young woman already brutalized by her neighbors awaited further violence from her state. The previous month, Saudi Arabia’s General Court of Qatif had sentenced her to six months in prison and two hundred lashes for riding in a car with an unrelated male acquaintance, after which she was gang-raped by seven men.2 Her subsequent pardon by King Abdullah3 indicates the power of in- ternational outrage and pressure, but the lack of energy with which Western women’s rights groups participated in that outrage and pres- sure is indicative of a larger and troubling trend. Feminist groups too often do not help women abroad, but they can help, and they should help, because the need for their support is far greater overseas than at home.4 Although the reasons for their choice to prioritize sometimes relatively trivial matters in America over life-threatening issues facing women across the ocean may not be known, its effect is all too appar- ent: less pressure on foreign governments to end the suffering of mil- lions of subjugated Islamic women. With a legal system based on a strict interpretation of Islam,5 Saudi Arabia is a state of gender apartheid.

This article critically examines ethnic differences in graduate level over-education, unemployment and wages as potential markers of discrimination or broader ‘ethnic penalties’, defined as the differences in labour market outcomes persisting after accounting for observable human capital and demographic characteristics. To estimate ethnic penalties a novel approach using covariate matching is applied. The findings reveal that despite their levels of educational attainment penalties persist among several minority ethnic groups. The implications of pre-labour market social disadvantages for explaining patterns of over-education are highlighted. Keywords discrimination, employment gaps, ethnic gaps, ethnicity, gender, graduate employment, over- education, over-qualification, unemployment, wage gaps Introduction Ethnic differences in occupational attainment, wages and unemployment cannot fully be explained by differences in human capital or demographic characteristics. The remaining unexplained component of such differences has been termed the ‘ethnic penalty’ in rec- ognition that it may reflect discrimination but also other labour market disadvantages (Berthoud, 2000; Cooke, 2007; Heath and Cheung, 2006; McGinnity and Lunn, 2011).

  • Understanding the Issue of Gender Discrimination As a ‘Crime’ of Gender Apartheid and Placing Violence Against Women at the Centre of This Matrix
    South Asian Studies A Research Journal of South Asian Studies Vol. 29, No.1, January – July 2014, pp. 91-101 Understanding the Issue of Gender Discrimination as a ‘Crime’ of Gender Apartheid and Placing Violence against Women at the Centre of this Matrix Shazia Naureen Qureshi. University of the Punjab, Lahore. Abstract This paper using the model of Racial Apartheid, once prevalent in South Africa, attempts to ask whether some of the severe forms of gender discrimination can be treated and termed as Gender Apartheid. It argues that class domination/segregation regime does not always have to follow the exact South African model in order to qualify for the crime of apartheid, the proof that discriminatory acts are severe, systematic and institutionalized are enough to establish the crime. The article notes that despite many commonalities between the two types of crimes, the degree of condemnation that practices of Racial Apartheid receive is far greater than the comparable acts of gender apartheid. It recommends that Apartheid, whether racial or gender, should be treated equally, and gender apartheid should accordingly be considered ‘crime against humanity’. Key Words Apartheid, Gender, Racial, Discrimination, Violence. Introduction This article recognises that violence against women is a part of a larger system of structural gender inequality; therefore, in order to combat violence against women it is necessary to address the deep-seated patterns of gender inequality and discrimination within the family and society (Goldfrab, 2003). The present article argues that the powerful framework of a human rights system is capable of bringing lasting solutions to the violations of women’s human rights including violence against women.
