Title: | La gàbia invisible? El debat sobre el vel en el feminisme |
Author: | Recasens-Salvadó, Laura |
Tutor: | Martí Pérez, Josep |
Abstract: | For many years, religion has been a tool of oppression against women, something contemporary feminism has consistently highlighted throughout its existence. However, we must look beyond and ask whether it is religion that shapes culture in societies or vice versa. It is important to distinguish between the material world and the symbolic processes where meaning and language operate, and in this case, not to base our understanding solely on the actions of the Muslim community but to delve deeper into the origins of these actions. The primary aim of this research is to provide an approximate description of the use of the veil and the debate it sparks within contemporary feminism, considering the intersections between cultural practices, feminist identities, and dress policies. We also intend to address the use of the veil as a tool of oppression and violence against women. To achieve this, the study will draw from two sources of information. Firstly, we will use ethnography by conducting a collection of in-depth interviews with women who have worn or currently wear the veil. Secondly, we will complement this with existing literature. Together, this approach will prompt us to question the relationship between the veil and individual autonomy, women's rights, debates about religion, secularism, and other related issues. |
