Debates about whether the Wahhabist practice of face-veiling for
women should be banned in modern liberal states tend to generate
more heat than light. This book brings clarity to what can be a
confusing subject by disentangling the different strands of the
problem and breaking through the accusations of misogyny and
Islamophobia. Explaining and expounding the ideas of giants of the
liberal tradition including Locke, Mill, and Rawls as well as
contemporary thinkers like Nussbaum, Kymlicka and Oshana, the book
considers a variety of conceptions of liberalism and how they
affect the response to the question. Directly addressing issues
facing many of today's societies, it unpicks whether paternalism on
grounds of welfare can be justified within liberalism, the value of
personal autonomy and the problem of whether a socially influenced
choice counts as a genuine preference. Covering the role of
multiculturalism, gender issues and feminism, this comprehensive
philosophical study of a major political question gets to the heart
of whether a ban could be justified in principle, and also
questions whether any such ban could prove efficacious in achieving
its end.
