The Position of Women and Women's Rights in Islamic Family Reform: A Comparison in Indonesia and Tunisia

This research was prepared with the aim of discussing the position and fight for women's rights in the Islamic Family reform (Comparison in Indonesia and Tunisia). Some women demand that their rights be taken away by male hegemony. This theme ultimately falls within the scope of the Holy Quran which is used as a source of legitimization of the relationship between men and women. The research method used in this study is the method of collecting data through library research. Data is collected by gathering information from various sources of literature, including books, magazines, journals, and others. From this research, it can be concluded that the reform of Islamic family law in Indonesia and Tunisia was carried out to answer the needs of the times and especially to raise the degree (status) of women, namely through nurturing, preserving and then fighting for women's rights. Although the minimum standards of marriage and polygamy differ in the two countries, they share a similar principle and goal: the protection of women's rights. Nonetheless, these rights are equivalent by nature in sharia (maqasyid ash-shari'ah), such as the right to mental and psychological health (equivalent to the nature of hifz an-nafs/maintaining the soul), then the right to maintain reproductive health (equivalent to the nature of hifdz al-nasl/maintaining offspring), Furthermore, the right to obtain equal opportunities in the field of education (commensurate with the nature of hifdz al-'aql / preserving the intellect) and the provisions of polygamy between the two countries also have commensurate goals and principles, namely to protect women's honor or human rights (commensurate with the principle of hifdz al-'ird).

Honor-endorsing women and relational aggression: Evidence for the presence of feminine aggression norms in southern U.S. women

Research on honor cultures has centered almost exclusively on men and men's use of physical aggression as a means of reputation defense, while tacitly overlooking women's role(s). Across three studies (N = 813), we examined whether honor endorsing women, like men, exhibit aggressive tendencies, albeit in the form of relational aggression. We found that women's honor endorsement predicted greater use of reactive relational aggression (e.g., ignoring and excluding others; Studies 1 and 2), but only among women who felt they were not achieving what it means to be an honorable woman (Study 2). Lastly, we found that women higher in feminine honor endorsement were more supportive of women who relationally aggressed (i.e. spreading rumors, social exclusion) in response to reputation threats (Study 3). Taken together, the present research indicates that honor endorsing women are more active in reputation maintenance and defense than prior work has acknowledged.

Value attitudes of the Russian nobility in the late 18th - middle 19th centuries: gender aspect

The purpose of the paper is to reveal the gender specifics of the behavioral norms of the Russian nobility in the late 18th - mid 19th centuries. The author stands on the positions of the approaches of historical anthropology, the history of everyday life and gender history. The conclusions are based on the analysis of sources of personal origin and literary texts of the era. The paper touches upon the problem of discursive differences between male and female writing, but the main attention is paid to behavioral differences. It is concluded that there are pronounced differences both in value attitudes and in the behavior of men and women. This was due to the fact that much more prohibitions were imposed on womens everyday life. Moreover, the behavior of unmarried representatives of the noble class was subjected to particularly strict regulation. Unlike the young men, they were under constant control and supervision from the family and the entire noble society as a whole. This was due to the category of honor, which also had significant gender specificity. If for a man, honor meant his qualities and merits, for a woman honor meant chastity, that is, the ability to abstain from sexual contact outside of marriage. Numerous taboos weaken after the marriage of a noblewoman, but internal attitudes and self-control determine the stability of their behavior patterns.

REINTERPRETATION OF HIJAB CONCEPT IN THE VIEW OF MURTADHA MUTAHHARI

In the view of Millennial society, Hijab was better known as fashion for woman to look beautiful. It’s proven by the presence of so many tutorials wearing Hijab with various models showed on Youtube. Those tutorials influenced women views that to make them look completely enchanting they should wear Hijab. As the consequence, Hijab what must be believed to be an obligation and the guidance of the Shari’a, it’s even understood by women as a form of need and desire only, and it’s especially just to attract man attentions. Former times, Hijab was understood by people as a symbol of glory and a form of the obedience of a woman to God. But, now, due to misunderstanding of the meaning and the essence of Hijab, it’s misused by women in this Millennial era. To solve this problem, it’s required a philosophical study. This study is expected to be one way to refine meaning of the essence of Hijab. To look further, we can study some views of Sayid Murtadha Muthahhari. He was one of contemporary Iranian philosophers who refined the essence of Hijab. In Murtadha Mutahhari philosophical views, he offered to us four meaning of the essence of Hijab, those were the first was psychological tranquility, the second was strengthen the relationship of husband and wife, the third was the glory and honor of women, and the fourth was strengthen of the society. In another hand, he also offered to us three reasons that why women must wear Hijab. It’s economic reasons, social reason, and ethical reason. This Study is trying to refine and inform the meaning of the essence of hijab to Moslem society through Murtadha Mutahhari philosophical view.

Coalition building and mobilization: case studies of the comfort women memorials in the United States

ABSTRACTDiaspora politics, coalition building, and the gender rights movement have come together to bring about the unexpected: the public memorialization in the United States of “comfort women,” young women from across Asia forced to provide sexual services to the Japanese Imperial Army during the 1930s and 1940s. In this article, we explore how local politics in the United States became the site of competing narratives over the comfort women, and debates over erecting memorials or statues in honor of these women on public land. Our analysis builds on the existing literature on the role of diaspora in international and local politics but also adds the important dimension of changing gender norms. Through case studies, we explore the dynamics behind the success or failure of the siting of a monument and the important role of activists and local politicians in mobilizing support throughout the process. Using a qualitative approach based on fieldwork and interviews, we highlight the size and trends of the ethnic Korean population, the relative strengths of supporting and opposing coalitions, and the use of the strategy of universalism in determining whether or not the goal of siting a memorial in honor of the comfort women is achieved.

Academician's Attitudes Towards Honor

Abstract Honor is an important concept that can affect lives and life-styles of many women, even end up with death case in Turkey. This research was carried out to determine the attitudes of university teaching staff towards honor and violence committed against women in the name of honor. This descriptive study was conducted with 294 academicians at Karadeniz Technical University, Turkey. Academicians strongly stated that it is quite unreasonable for a woman's honor to be under the responsibility of her father or her brothers, women faced oppression due to the value given to their honor depending on virginity and they agreed about the item suggesting that a woman's honor is not something about the man or her family but it concerns the woman herself.The fact that the level of academicians’ “attitudes towards honor” was found low is a positive outcome in terms of weak negative attitude towards honor. That is, it shows that a woman's honor cannot

Indispensable Histories

Following World War I, African American camp worker Kathryn Johnson and YMCA volunteer Addie Hunton produced a memoir to document stories of Black soldiers during the war. Johnson and Hunton's efforts mirrored those of other writers, historians, and civil rights activists “to generate a Black counter-memory of the war.” Those histories, Lentz-Smith attests, “were not simply defenses of Black men and women's honor; they were also calls to action.”

REINTERPRETASI TERHADAP PEMAHAMAN HADITS-HADITS TENTANG GENDER DALAM PERSPEKTIF FIQH AL-HADITS

There are a lot of hadiths that influenced certain circumstances, especially those “degrading” degrees of women. If the hadiths are textually practiced, there would certainly be an impact on human-right violations. If broken, it will also affect the person’s faith in applying the traditions of Prophet SAW in his life. This issue certainly needs the best solution in understanding these hadiths. It is unneglectable to avoid that women harassment are still happening today. Everyone witnesses that so many women lost their rights, both as a human being, such as subordinated to its shortcomings, but also as citizens, such as loss of right to be a leader. The women with this particular plight are the result of men’s behavior who stand on religious arguments (especially hadith) that put women as “humbled” and even simply as the creature that confined to live in walls of house, which is just back and forth between the kitchen, wells and mattresses. Reinterpretation of Islamic concepts on the position of women should be provided in order to give opportunity to the present women as highly dynamic, courteous, and beneficial for religion and society. We all believe that Prophet Muhammad SAW was the great personal who respected and uphold the honor of women. This is the gap between the will of the Prophet SAW with the understanding of Muslim believers about the hadiths of the Prophet SAW
