This key text explores the relationship between cultural justice
and sexual justice in multicultural societies in a new light. The
authors challenge the framing of the 'feminism and
multiculturalism' as one of inevitable conflict, as well as the
portrayal of liberal sexual equality and cultural rights as
irreconcilable, moving the debate beyond the culture/gender
impasse.
The book focuses on three theoretical themes from a feminist
perspective: the meaning and role of culture and identity in
politics; the problem of autonomy in relation to culture and
identity; and the crucial role of democracy in addressing the
theoretical and practical problems raised by this set of issues.
The diverse contributors break new theoretical ground by providing
detailed engagement with the concrete experiences of women and
minorities who are caught in the dilemmas of gender and cultural
justice. The collected chapters address sexual/cultural justice in
a range of different countries, offering illuminating case studies
on Britain, South Africa, Canada, the Netherlands, Australia,
Mexico, and the United States.
Students and researchers working in the areas of gender and
feminist theory, politics, law, philosophy and sociology, will find
this book to be of strong interest.
