Remembering Violence, Negotiating Change
This paper focuses on competing appropriations of international women’s rights standards in the framework of the Moroccan Equity and Reconciliation Commission (ERC) and its follow-up projects. I argue that, even if the ERC’s gender approach has been introduced as part of international models of transitional justice, it is geared toward earlier women’s rights and human rights activism, as well as to established state practices of at least selectiv…

Legalizing’ the family
This article is devoted to an analysis of Algerian court cases. It focuses on family law in practice, in order to shed light on the disputed character of this realm of law and the ambiguity involved in its reform. The aim of the article is to question the assumption of an intrinsic opposition between the (traditional/Muslim) family on the one hand, and (modern) state law on the other. It will be argued that the legal regulation of the family, far…
Le social dans le droit
« Droit sacré », « droit élaboré par les juristes » : très longtemps, le discours scientifique sur le droit musulman contemporain a été dominé par l’idée que ce droit était « spécifique » (Schacht, 1969 ; Layish, 1978 ; Mayer, 1990). Depuis les années quatre-vingt cependant, on « redécouvre » son côté social ou « pratique » (Henry, 1989). C’est dans ce contexte que la relation entre droit musulman et droit positif ou étatique a été reformulée dan…
La difficile autonomie des luttes de femmes
(H) Sexual Rights and their Discontents
Taking Yūsuf al-Qaraḍāwī as an example, this article suggests looking at neo-conservative Islamic discourse on homosexuality in connection with the enduring vehemence with which this discourse upholds religiously framed notions of marriage and the family while continuously making adaptations on questions of women’s rights in order to accommodate political and societal change. In his writings, al-Qaraḍāwī systematically treats the topic of homosex…
