Economic freedom and legal gender disparity

AbstractUsing a panel dataset from 1970 to 2019, this paper theorizes and empirically demonstrates that countries with higher levels of economic freedom have fewer legal differences between men's and women's economics rights. Specifically, economic freedom promotes equal legal treatment of women to work, get paid, and be entrepreneurs. This finding is robust to controlling for income, political institutional quality, and country and period fixed effects. Furthermore, economic freedom's impact is amplified in democratic countries. The results challenge the prevailing notion that capitalism is detrimental to women, instead providing evidence that economically free countries favor less legal discrimination against women.

#MeToo, #MenToo: how men's progressive and reactionary actions are shaped by defensiveness

Movements for progressive social change (e.g., Black Lives Matter, #MeToo) are commonly met with reactionary counter-movements that seek to protect the rights and interests of structurally advantaged groups (e.g., All Lives Matter, #MenToo). Drawing on the insights of the social identity approach and the needs-based model of reconciliation, the current research explores whether men's support for progressive and reactionary action (i.e., their intentions to promote women's rights and men's rights, respectively) are shaped by their need to defend their group's moral identity. Combined analyses of three samples (N = 733) showed that men's social identification was associated with their reduced intentions to act for women's rights and positively related to their intentions to promote men's rights—effects mediated by their need for positive moral identity and defensiveness regarding the issue of gendered violence. Overall, the findings suggest that defensive construals regarding group-based inequalities may not only present a barrier to men's engagement in collective action for gender equality, but might also underlie their participation in reactionary actions designed to advance the rights of their own (advantaged) group.

The Contestation of Islamic Boarding School Womens's View of Wifes' Rights in Poligamy

This study examines the contention around Islamic boarding school women's view of wives' rights in polygamous marriages. It aims to answer academic questions, specifically how and why there is contention among Islamic boarding school women over the rights of wives in polygamy. Furthermore, it also aims to answer what consequences this contestation has for the practice of polygamy, which is common in Islamic boarding schools. This paper is an empirical research that takes a sociological perspective. The analysis is based on Pierre Bourdieu's Cultural Sociology theory. Data were gathered through an interview study with research subjects from five traditional Islamic boarding schools in Lampung Province. The findings of this study show that the contestation of wives' rights in polygamy is influenced by the level of understanding of religious texts and norms, social and economic realities, and the strength of the patriarchal traditions and systems that surround it. Most women are denied the opportunity to fight for their bodily and spiritual rights, both before and after polygamous marriage occurs. Women in Islamic boarding schools recognize that men's supremacy influences the neglect of women's rights in polygamy because their understanding of religious texts is conservative. Women have no bargaining power when their husbands seek to practice polygamy. Conservatives believe that polygamy is a fate and consequence that women who want to marry a caregiver or an Islamic boarding school leader (Kyai) must accept. A moderate perspective necessitates that polygamy be practiced with proportional rights between husband and wife. The repercussions of this contestation have resulted in a better appreciation of the importance of men's and women's rights being proportionate, as well as mutual protection.

Gender rights of citizens in Russian legislation and law enforcement practice

Human rights and freedoms are the highest value in the Russian Federation, and their observance and protection is the responsibility of the State. Despite the constitutional consolidation of this provision, the equality of rights of men and women, as well as the prohibition of discrimination on the basis of sex, Russian legislation distinguishes the constitutional rights of women and men in certain aspects, taking into account the physiological characteristics of the former exclusively. Thus, legislators grant more rights and freedoms to some categories of people, and in some cases this preference imposes certain restrictions. In particular, the restriction of women's rights to work. The subject of the study is the norms of constitutional, civil and administrative law, other normative legal and judicial acts defining gender equality and inequality of citizens in the Russian Federation. The purpose of the study is to compare legislation and law enforcement practice in relation to men and women. In the course of the work, the following methods were used: dialectical, logical, systemic, functional, formal-legal, comparative-legal research methods. The study analyzes the basic constitutional rights of men and women, as well as the application of a gender approach in law enforcement. The novelty of the conducted research is the differentiation of gender constitutional rights of citizens, a comparison of the application of legislation to men and women depending on physiological characteristics, as well as a comparison of law enforcement practices applied to them in homogeneous processes. The analysis of the conducted research allowed us to establish that some of the legislative acts have gender discriminatory provisions. This is directly related to the fact that legislators take into account only the physiological characteristics of the female body, while the characteristics of the male body are ignored. Law enforcement practice in the gender aspect implies that men's rights are derived from the rights of women (whose rights are prerogative). In this regard, there is a need both for the development of law enforcement approaches and for the adoption (amendment) of legislative acts themselves, which should be based on the principle of equality of citizens' rights.

Construction and Contribution of Enterprise Trade Unions from The Perspective of Salary Management and Labor Security

Taking trade unions as the main research object, this paper analyzes the impact of compensation management on employees' labor security, and finds that labor unions cannot effectively improve employees' labor security. In the comparison of the influence of trade unions on men and women, trade unions can better protect men's rights and interests, while women's rights and interests cannot be effectively protected, which is related to social discrimination against women. Trade unions should promote the establishment of harmonious labor relations through democratic consultation, openness and transparency, and the establishment of harmonious labor relations is an inevitable requirement for the harmonious development of enterprises and the stable progress of society.

Property and Pa-Tree-Archy

Abstract Although previous studies have examined the causes of deforestation from a cross-national, quantitative perspective, these studies tend to neglect the role of women in mitigating forest loss. Yet, evidence from case studies shows that when women own land they tend to protect forests, replant trees, and engage in agricultural practices that place less pressure on forests. Building on this work, we use ordinary least squares regression models to analyze data on forest loss derived from satellite imagery for a sample of 67 low- and middle-income nations. The results suggest that improving gender equality in immovable property rights does help save trees. Furthermore, our analysis also suggests that men and women have different priorities when it comes to forest sustainability. Women's rights have a protective effect on forests, while men's rights have no statistically significant effect. Given the extent to which we rely on forests for health, environmental, and economic reasons, these findings imply that when women's rights are curtailed, the consequences extend beyond women themselves.

MARY WOLLSTONECRAFT’S PROJECT FOR A REFORM OF THE MINDS

In my investigation, I analyse aspects of Mary Wollstonecraft’s thought regarding the traditional education of women, her programme of education, the question of women’s rights, and the condition of women. I moreover investigate Mary Wollstonecraft’s proposal of new theological foundations for religious belief. Mary Wollstonecraft aims to propose a revolution in female manners. Her revolution is a revolution of minds: she aims to reach a complete reform in the education and the formation of individuals, in general, and of women, in particular. Mary Wollstonecraft’s revolution is a revolution for the spiritual independence of individuals. To reach the condition of independence, traditional education ought to be criticised and refused since traditional education is the system through which women are transformed into dependent entities. Power over oneself, liberation from passions, and autonomy of judgment are the main targets of Mary Wollstonecraft’s programme of education. The correct foundation of the individual ought to be reason. Mary Wollstonecraft proves to be a deeply religious thinker: she steadily connects the promotion of the dignity of mankind to a new way of worship of Deity. The centrality of reason profoundly influences her theological assumptions: Mary Wollstonecraft refuses all forms of reverence based on blind submission to God. The main texts of my inquiry are A Vindication of the Rights of Woman and A Vindication of the Rights of Men.

USING “SMALL DATA” TO MAP HOW MEN’S RIGHTS CAME ONLINE (WORK-IN-PROGRESS)

While the advent of the Internet can be seen as a “revolution” in how social movements communicate and organize, digital methods and materials do not necessarily constitute a “revolution” in how we study movements or their histories. My paper enters this discussion by suggesting a "small data" approach for studying the early digital presence of the men’s rights movement, and its transition from print to digital media. I compare two unique data sets involving print and digital archives to map out the geographical locations of men's rights groups and adherents in the early 1990s. I demonstrate how: 1) there is significant overlap between the print organizations and early digital spaces for men's rights activists; and 2) men’s rights communities in North America were often concentrated in areas like Southern California, the Pacific Northwest, and the North Eastern Seaboard. Ultimately, I argue that print materials, “small data,” and non-computational methods are still valuable tools to study social movements and their early digital histories.

Культ святых и генерирование этнической идентичности казахов в Северо-Казахстанской области

Introduction. The formation and maintenance of Kazakh identity in the northern regions of Kazakhstan was largely associated with the specificity of historical, cultural, linguistic resources, and the religious factor played an important role therein. The shaping of ‘Kazakhness’ in the pre-Soviet period was based not only on the self-image as free nomads and language community but also on belonging to the world of Islam. Such local resources of the Kazakh ethnic identity comprise the cult of holy warriors and seers — batyr, auwliye and zhyrau, i.e. true historical heroes from the period of fierce struggle for the region throughout the seventeenth–eighteenth centuries. Goals. The study attempts an insight into the specifics of the saints’ cult among Kazakhs of Northern Kazakhstan. Real supporters of Khan Abylai and active participants of steppe wars — batyrs Kozhabergen, Kulsary and Kuleke — were included in the pantheon of saints across the designated region. Materials and methods. The work examines a wide range of sources, both published archival documents and pre-revolutionary statistical collections, as well as ethnographic material collected by the authors in the form of family trees (shezhire) and ethno-genealogical legends about the deeds of cultural heroes. The documents introduced into scientific turnover have made it possible to verify the relevance of data articulated by oral shezhire narratives and legends, which together constitute a valuable layer of sources yielding insights into the mentality and spiritual world of nomads. Results. The ethnic history of the northern Kazakh clans and tribes and the emergence of the local cult of holy warriors show a close connection between lifestyle and religious factor for the reproduction of ethnic identity. Under the conditions of constant hostilities and distrust toward alien neighbors across northern steppes, those were Genghisids — famous warlords/batyrs and charismatic leaders of mighty tribes — that became objects of veneration, rather than Muslim righteous men or descendants of the Kozha clan. The informal alliance of Genghisids and batyrhood did facilitate the preservation of “Kazakhness’ during the period of heavy defeats and severe trials in the sixteenth–eighteenth centuries. The lives of heroes served as examples to all Kazakhs regardless of tribal affiliation and as models of ideal behavior. Later, descendants would endow their ancestors with the traits of Muslim saints and pass on narratives claiming their gifts of soothsaying and healing from generation to generation. Being a local Muslim variant of saints’ worship practices which incorporated elements of pre-Islamic beliefs, the cult of the northern batyr-auwliye performed an important integrative function and contributed to the deep ethnicization of clan/tribal roots among local Kazakhs.

Five angry men: advocating for and mobilizing EU gender equality law to advance men's rights

AbstractThis article analyses the impact of a men's rights organization involved in political lobbying and legal mobilization around gender equality issues at the European level since 1986. Drawing on the as‐yet unexplored archival materials of the Campaign for Equal State Pension Ages (CESPA), an organization that had a membership of about 1,200 individuals in the 1990s and later rebranded itself as PARITY, the article explores the meaning of European Union gender equality advocacy and mobilization by and for an organization initially composed exclusively of men based in the United Kingdom. It argues that anti‐discrimination law was successively used as a strategic tool by this organization to further class equality and as a potentially anti‐feminist instrument to defend men's rights.

Review on the Women's Rights and Islamic Law in Southeast Asia

Objective: This research explores the intersection of women's rights and Islamic law in Southeast Asia. This research aims to examine how Islamic law, as interpreted and practiced in the region, affects women's rights and to identify potential areas for reform that could better protect and promote women's rights within the framework of Islamic law. Method: To achieve this, the researcher conducted qualitative method, which include literature review using secondary data, and interview with relevant sources to obtain primary data that will support the analysis to achieve the purpose of this research. Researcher also used primary legal sources, such as regulations and legal cases, and legal policies in relation to women's rights and Islamic law in Southeast Asia. Interviews will be conducted with experts and activists working in the field to gain their perspectives on women's rights in the region and the challenges they face. Analysis will use a descriptive-analytical approach. Result: The research results indicate that while Islamic law provides some protections for women's rights, significant gaps in its application and interpretation leave women vulnerable to discrimination, abuse, and inequality. These gaps often result from patriarchal interpretations and practices prioritizing men's rights and interests over women's. Based on these findings, the study concludes that there is a need for a more nuanced and gender-sensitive interpretation and application of Islamic law that better protects and promotes women's rights. This could involve reforms in legal frameworks, policies, and practices and greater awareness and education about women's rights and the intersections between Islamic law and gender equality. Conclusion: Overall, this study highlights the ongoing struggle for women's rights in Southeast Asia and the need for continued efforts to ensure that these rights are fully realized within the framework of Islamic law.

Reprint Retrospective: The Funhouse Mirror from Empowered: Popular Feminism and Popular Misogyny

Abstract: This article is the first chapter from the 2018 book Empowered: Popular Feminism and Misogyny (Duke University Press). It critiques corporate feminist ads for focusing predominantly on individual empowerment and sentimentality, overlooking systemic barriers and broader inequalities. The chapter suggests these ads fit into shallow corporate social responsibility campaigns driven by consumerism. It also examines popular misogyny, detailing how men's rights groups parody feminist campaigns, often portraying women as threats to male power. Banet-Weiser urges readers to scrutinize the efficacy and intentions of feminist messaging in advertising, emphasizing the need to address existing power structures that disadvantage women in various spheres, including media and politics.

______________________________________________________________________________ 68 Multi-Gender Perspectives about POSH – Is The Policy Gender Inclusive?© 2023 by Ms. Jaya Yaduwanshi & Mr. Vinish Shaji is licensed under CC BY-NC 4.0 Multi-Gender Perspectives about POSH – Is The Policy Gender Inclusive?

The paper delves into the multi-gender perspectives surrounding the POSH policy's effectiveness and inclusivity. The research incorporates case studies and qualitative data to analyze the impact of the POSH policy on both men and women. The research also addresses the rising concerns of false or malicious complaints and the negative consequences they have on innocent individuals. The study employs exploratory and qualitative research, with case studies from professionals working in various corporate sectors. The respondents' views reveal a prevalent bias towards women, leading to the neglect of men's experiences of sexual harassment. The major findings of the study underline the urgent need for gender-neutral laws and increased awareness of sexual violence against men. Also suggestions are made for crucial amendments to the POSH Act to safeguard men's rights and protect them from exploitation. The paper advocates for a collective effort to recognize and support all victims of sexual violence, regardless of gender, to ensure a safe and inclusive work environment for all individuals.

The Concept of Murtadha Muthahhari on Freedom and Equality of Women's Rights in Islam

<p>This article describes the concept of Murtadha Muthahari's thoughts on freedom and equality of women's rights in Islam. Studying freedom and equality of women's rights in Islam is essential to respond to misinterpretation of women, which causes Westerners to make wrong assumptions about women in Islam and issue negative ideas about Muslim women. The primary data of this article is Muthahhari's work entitled Women's Rights in Islam and Women's Philosophy in Islam. This study used an analytic description method with a factual historical approach regarding the characters. This article presents how Muthahhari explains emancipation, freedom, and equality of women's rights in Islam. Muthahhari explained that emancipation is a movement that determines the equality of women's rights against men's rights to obtain justice and happiness. Meanwhile, according to Muthahhari, the freedom and equality of women's rights in Islam is that women and men have equal rights but not freedom and equality, which is the same between equality and identity, must be distinguished. Different from other figures who study women's issues, Muthahhari uses methods from Islam by using philosophy and religion as a starting point.</p>

A Manuscript about Sufi Sheikh Miracles from R. Fakhretdinov's Archive in the Collection of the IOM, RAS

Rizaeddin Fakhretdinov (18591936) is one of the most prominent figures among Muslim scholars at the turn of the 1920th cc. whose sphere of scientific interests was biographies. Among the materials of R. Fakhretdinov on the preparation of his famous work Asar there are texts related to Sufism, and of particular interest are descriptions of the miracles performed by Muslim righteous men. One of the documents about the miraculous deeds of a righteous man named Abd al-Latif b. Subhankul b. Ramkul under the title (Fī bayān manāqib al-'imām al-shaiḫ al-kāmil) Explanation of the virtues of al-Imam al-Sheikh al-Kamil (the Imam, the Sheikh who should be followed) is stored in the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts in the archive of R. Fakhretdinov (Fund 131, Inventory 1). The stories in many ways resemble or even coincide with similar Sufi texts from other Muslim countries. This is a sign of cultural and ideological interaction between brotherhoods, as well as transmission of the perfect image of Sufi righteous men. In addition, miracles and their number enhanced the importance of a sheikh mentor in the eyes of his followers and made his authority undeniable. It is worth mentioning that the text is written in a good Arabic literary language, which testifies to a high education level of the author. The present article contains a short biography of Rizaeddin Fakhretdinov, facsimile publication of the text and its translation into English.

Disrupting Patriarchal Illusio to Reduce Violence Against Women and Girls.

We apply a Bourdieusian lens to understand the reproduction of a patriarchal illusio that works to maintain violence-supportive attitudes and concurrent low levels of support for gender equality among young people. We analyze interview and focus group data collected with young women and men and conclude that we must disrupt the reproduction of patriarchal norms by: recognizing the intentional operation of backlash by men's rights activist groups that undermine attempts to transform society; ensuring girls' and women's safety on new technologies to reduce their exposure to sexism and violence; and introducing prevention early to disrupt misogynist social norms being internalized.

Men's Rights in India-Gender Biased Laws

Men's Rights in India-Gender Biased Laws

Misogyny and the construction of toxic masculinity in the Spanish Manosphere (Burbuja.info)

The anonymity of the Manosphere has provided a fertile breeding ground for the spread of misogyny through increased hate speech on the Internet. In recent years, this virtual space composed mostly of men, has been the subject of numerous studies aimed at identifying the discursive mechanisms of identity constructions that underlie the denigration of women. This paper takes the findings from international research on the subject to address a phenomenon still little explored in Spain through the analysis of misogynistic comments on Burbuja.info. Economic forum. The analysis sample comprises 4,281 messages that include the lexeme “woman” posted over 2.5 years, 761 of which contain expressions that ridicule, disparage, or insult women. Thematic analysis demonstrates the repetition of misogynistic topics and tropes common in the most radical Reddit and 4chan subforums, such as hypergamy, objectification, and the constant disparagement of the world of women, not to mention criticism of feminism, left-wing political parties, and legislation on gender violence. The results obtained show that the “male identity crisis” is narratively constructed in the messages on Burbuja.info using the motif of sacrifice –the cornerstone of a monotypic story in which the purpose of the hero-man-victim’s journey is to punish the villain-woman. Furthermore, we also found that there are different configurations of identity related to attitudes toward women; these match up with the four most prominent masculinist subcultures identified in the leading literature on the subject: Men Rights activists (MRA), Men Going Their Own Way (MGTOW), Pickup Artists (PUA), and Involuntary Celibates (Incels).

Status quo and predictors of Weibo users' attitudes toward lesbians and gay men in 31 provinces in the Chinese mainland: Analysis based on supervised machine learning and provincial panel data.

Public attitudes toward consensual same-sex relations are crucial to lesbians' and gay men's rights and society's well-being, but research addressing this topic in China is limited. We comprehensively explored the current status and predictors of Weibo users' attitudes toward individuals who are lesbian or gay (IWLG) at the provincial level in the Chinese mainland. Natural language processing and machine learning techniques were incorporated to analyze 1,934,008 Weibo posts from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2020, to evaluate Weibo users' expressed attitudes toward IWLG in 31 provinces in the Chinese mainland guided by the ABC Model of attitude. Although the general attitudes, feelings, and support for the rights of Weibo users toward IWLG among different provinces were relatively positive, knowledge about IWLG was noticeably inaccurate. Economic development and educational level positively predicted certain aspects of attitudes at the provincial level. Weibo users from different provinces are generally supportive and accepting of people who are gay and the rights of the gay community. However, considerable misconceptions and inaccurate knowledge of IWLG surfaced in Weibo users' posts. Economic development and educational level were important predictors of specific attitudes toward IWLG at the provincial level. Increased efforts to address the unbalanced and insufficient development between different provinces could help reduce the public's prejudice, stigma, and discrimination toward IWLG. Policies that facilitate greater implementation of Comprehensive Sexuality Education sequentially and effectively are suggested as well.
