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. 650 0 $a Freedom of religion. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85112662 650 0 $a Liberalism $x Philosophy. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009129634 650 0 $a Burqas (Islamic clothing) $x Political aspects. 650 0 $a Hijab (Islamic clothing) $x Political aspects. 650 7 $a Burqas (Islamic clothing) $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1902650 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1902650 650 7 $a Multiculturalism $x Religious aspects. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1028846 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1028846 650 7 $a Muslim women $x Legal status, laws, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1031010 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1031010 651 7 $a Europe. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1245064 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1245064 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781350125070 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526015911.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=66E37BA6DCB911EC8436229451ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
