Shari‘a in Sydney and New York
This article explores how Shari‘a is conceptualized and experienced by 50 Muslim legal professionals and leaders in Sydney and New York. It analyses qualitative data on issues concerning the experience of Muslims with Shari‘a, on how this can be improved in both countries and on how compatible Shari‘a is with their respective legal systems. While the Muslim community should not be homogenized in either of these two global cities, the analysis dis…
The limits of multiculturalism in Australia? The Shari'a flogging case of R v. Raad, Fayed, Cifci and Coskun
This article focuses on the marginal extremities - the limits - of Shari'a practices in Australia, through the example of a criminal case in which four Sydney-based Muslim men whipped a Muslim convert to punish him for his excessive consumption of drugs and alcohol. The men claimed they acted in line with the doctrines of Shari'a practice to 'purify' or absolve the victim of his sins. While the case was tried before a magistrate in a lower court,…
Justice
Justice is an elusive concept whose meaning is contested across disparate institutional contexts and within different schools of thought. Scholarship in the Western tradition, within moral, legal, and political philosophy, and across modernist and postmodernist approaches more generally, is divided on how justice is achieved and for whom, or whether it is even possible to accomplish. While justice is commonly associated with law and criminal just…
Legal Formalism
Legal formalism, also commonly known as “black letter law,” refers to an intellectual perspective that asserts the absolute autonomy of law through a separation of law and politics, while positing the law's immanent intelligibility and coherence. Formalist approaches seek determinate legal outcomes through a process of deductive logic where the premises mobilized and conclusions reached are sourced internally, within the law's “immanent moral rat…
Feminist Legal Theory
Through various social, political, and intellectual movements that have found expression in the three “waves” of feminism, feminists have long criticized enduring social and institutional inequalities between the sexes that are obfuscated by gender‐blind approaches to social inquiry. Drawing on an interdisciplinary history of feminist thought, feminist legal theory has, over the last three decades, made specific contributions to legal theory thro…
Gender Roles
”Gender roles” are understood as social practices that relate to gender identity. Academic and popular debate focuses on the functionality of “traditional” gender roles as well as the meanings and implications of changes in gender roles. The concept has been used by feminists to perceive gender as social and identify social problems but its explanatory value has also been challenged.

Appropriating the rights of women
Defining the conversation about Shari'a
Debates about Shari'a law and legal pluralism have come to the fore of political discourse in many western multicultural societies including Australia. The mass media, in particular newspapers, have been active in reporting on Shari'a related news items and in doing so, have made a significant contribution to shaping political debate across western nations from governmental to grassroots levels. Understanding how newspapers report on Shari'a will…
