简介
"Dialogue on the conflict between religious fundamentalismand women's rights is often stymied by an 'all or nothing'approach: fundamentalists claim of absolute religious freedom, while some feminists dismiss religion entirely asbeing so imbued with patriarchy as to be eternally opposedto women's rights. This ignores, though, the experiences of religious women who suffer under fundamentalism and fight to resist it, perceiving themselves to be at once religious and feminist. In Religious Fundamentalisms and the Human Rights of Women, Howland provides a forum for these different scholars, both religious and nonreligious,to meet and seek common ground in their fight against fundamentalism. Through an examination of international human rights, national law, grass roots activism, and theology, this volume explores the acute problems that contemporary fundamentalist movements pose for women's equality and liberty rights." -- BOOK JACKET
