Book excerpt: La cohabitation au sein d'une même unité politique de peuples porteurs de cultures différentes ne caractérise pas seulement les plus grands empires. Elle se fait aussi, à des degrés divers à certaines époques de leur histoire, dans presque toutes les nations, à la suite de conflits (guerres, colonisation, etc.), d'annexions, ou du fait de mouvements migratoires. Ce ne sont pas seulement des groupes humains d'origines différentes qui cohabitent alors, mais leurs références culturelles, leurs conceptions de la façon de gérer la vie en société, qu'il s'agisse des relations au sein de la famille, de la place accordée au religieux dans la vie publique ou des attentes et des rôles vis-à-vis de l'Etat. On sait combien les conceptions et les pratiques en matière de règlement des conflits et d'administration de la justice peuvent alors devenir l'objet de divergences profondes. Comment le pouvoir politique prend-il en compte l'altérité culturelle ? Comment traite-t-il la norme judiciaire que portent en eux les groupes soumis à lui ? L'observation de l'histoire, comme celle du monde actuel, nous montre la très large gamme de réponses du politique, qui vont de l'acceptation à l'intolérance face à la diversité des modes de penser et de pratiquer le droit et la justice. Cet ouvrage est consacré à l'analyse de situations qui illustrent la façon dont procède la justice lorsqu'elle est confrontée à la variabilité culturelle. Quelles sont les réponses à des demandes et à des pressions en faveur de la diversité ? Quelles conséquences entraîne l'acceptation du fait qu'une appartenance ethnique pourrait mériter un traitement spécifique dans le domaine de la justice ? Comment cheminer entre une modulation raisonnable et le risque des effets pervers du culturalisme, souvent dénoncés ? Comment se situent les acteurs sociaux vis-à-vis du discours de la diversité, selon les objectifs qu'ils poursuivent ? Même si ces questions ne sont pas nouvelles, elles sont très actuelles. Surtout, elles dépassent désormais le champ d'un pays particulier pour s'inscrire dans un questionnement mondial. Les positions des instances internationales, les mouvements sociaux reliés, au-delà de leur pays d'appartenance, par des réseaux mondiaux, la diffusion des idées valorisant l'identité culturelle, tout cela pose à la justice des questions qui ont de nos jours un écho jusqu'alors inédit.

Download or read book La Diversite Culturelle Dans Le Proces International written by Petronie Kouendze-T and published by Univ Europeenne. This book was released on 2011-01-04 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La culture constitue la marque incontestable de la personnalite. Elle justifie l''homme dans ses agissements. C''est pourquoi, la qualification de certains actes devrait se rapporter a la culture de celui qui les pose. Faire justice sans tenir compte du cadre culturel dans lequel ont ete perpetrees les violations des droits de l''homme, peut etre assimilee a une violation du droit a l''identite et du droit a la reconnaissance. Le cadre international dans lequel s''opere le proces international peut-il lui permettre de tenir compte de ces nombreux particularismes? Cela parait bien difficile, mais comment serait-il possible de donner du credit a un proces qui se fonde sur des dispositions qui sont autres que celles de l''Etat dont sont ressortissants victimes et accuses? Certes, la justice penale internationale peut constituer la bouee de sauvetage de l''humanite, contre tous les maux qui la minent et l''enfoncent un peu plus chaque jour. Mais, doit-on la considerer comme l''unique solution lorsqu''il est demontre qu''elle peut constituer un obstacle tant au retablissement de la paix qu''a l''evolution meme de la justice.

Download or read book The Challenges of Justice in Diverse Societies written by Meena K. Bhamra and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the urgency to respond to the challenges posed by diversity in contemporary societies, the discussion of normative foundations is often overlooked. This book takes that important first step, and offers new ways of thinking about diversity. Its contribution to an ongoing dialogue in this field lies in the construction of a normative framework which endeavours to better understand the challenges of justice in diverse societies. By applying this normative framework to specific and broader examples of injustices in the spheres of religion, culture, race, ethnicity, gender and nationality, the book demonstrates how constitutional pluralist discourses can contribute both to new and legal responses to diversity. The book will be of interest to legal professionals, policy makers, law students and scholars concerned with exploring diversity in the 21st century.

Download or read book M diation et diversit culturelle written by and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La prise en compte de la différence culturelle est trop souvent associée à la valorisation des particularismes, aux enfermements dans le culturalisme, voire à la " ghéttoïsation ". De même la médiation, si elle n'est pas perçue comme une mode passagère pour contourner différents conflits, est tantôt conçue comme une justice molle incapable de juguler l'éclatement de nos sociétés, voire même y contribuant, tantôt au contraire comme la nouvelle utopie d'une société libérée de ses conflits. Enfin quand on cherche à connaître comment se croisent la prise en compte de la différence de cultures et les pratiques de médiation, on se heurte à une sorte de " trou noir " face aux questions si essentielles de la place à reconnaître au pluralisme, au multiculturel et à la complexité dans les sociétés contemporaines. Il s'agit dans cet ouvrage de proposer une lecture qui affranchit la différence culturelle des représentations qui lui sont généralement associées, notamment en termes de durcissement et d'essentialisation des identités, pour en saisir les dynamiques et en percevoir les potentialités. La médiation constitue à cet égard un cadre permettant d'aborder différemment la mise en forme de notre vivre ensemble et, ce faisant, d'ouvrir le champ du droit à des pratiques et des expériences inédites, contribuant ainsi à renouveler notre pensée du juridique. En approfondissant particulièrement certaines démarches actuelles, l'ouvrage présente, plutôt qu'une doctrine, des pistes pour approfondir la compréhension des enjeux des pratiques sociales se renouvelant sous nos yeux. Il donne du " grain à moudre " pour penser le devenir de nos sociétés.

Download or read book Diversity Social Justice and Inclusive Excellence written by Seth N. Asumah and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2014-05-19 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2016 NYASA Book Award presented by the New York African Studies Association When students are introduced to the study of diversity and social justice, it is usually from sociological and psychological perspectives. The scholars and activists featured in this anthology reject this approach as too limiting, insisting that we adopt a view that is both transdisciplinary and multiperspectival. Their essays focus on the components of diversity, social justice, and inclusive excellence, not just within the United States but in other parts of the world. They examine diversity in the contexts of culture, race, class, gender, learned ability and dis/ability, religion, sexual orientation, and citizenship, and explore how these concepts and identities interrelate. The result is a book that will provide readers with a better theoretical understanding of diversity studies and will enable them to see and think critically about oppression and how systems of oppression may be challenged.

These discussions provide alternative views to popular doctrines and philosophical truths, and include many of the most popular terms used in current conversations on the topic, from ageism to xenophobia.

Download or read book Orchestrating Diversity in International Criminal Justice written by Farhad Malekian and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The scope of criminal justice has to include the body of equal norms which have to be protected. The basic elements of authoritarianism, universality, complementarity, and pluralism should not be employed by superior powers and enforced within the procedures and values of our criminal charter. A pure criminal jurisdiction ought to have its own independent honour and its own unified diverse values including: righteousness, innocence, virtue, honesty, and the preservation of objectivity in legal judgments. At the same time, the notion of diversity should not create an artificial equality in place of authentic, dynamic protection. It is of no essential significance which criminal justice measures are exercised by a court if the rulings of the court are based on clear evidence, and most importantly, if the court has not granted immunity for major criminals through impunity as a result of corrupt proceedings. It is the independent character of criminal justice which earns it its high level of respect. The existence of pure values is the natural and essential requirement for a court and allows it to be qualified as a body with ethical and moral character. A court should not be run through the threat of force or through monopolisation, but rather with trust. Furthermore, the courts are morally required to resist enmeshing themselves in the authoritarian exploitation of criminal justice. Working towards this goal should be imperative in the mechanism of criminal jurisprudence. This is the most plausible method for decreasing the number of victims of core international crimes and achieving pluralist values of diversity"--

Download or read book Sexual Justice Cultural Justice written by Barbara Arneil and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-11-22 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This key volume explores the relationship between cultural justice and sexual justice in multicultural societies in a new light. The authors challenge the framing of ‘feminism and multiculturalism’ as one of inevitable conflict, as well as the portrayal of liberal sexual equality and cultural rights as irreconcilable, moving the debate beyond the culture/gender impasse. Focusing on three theoretical themes from a feminist perspective: the meaning and role of culture and identity in politics the problem of autonomy in relation to culture and identity the crucial role of democracy in addressing the theoretical and practical problems raised by this set of issues. The diverse contributors break new theoretical ground by providing detailed engagement with the concrete experiences of women and minorities who are caught in the dilemmas of gender and cultural justice. The collected chapters address sexual/cultural justice in a range of different countries, offering illuminating case studies on Britain, South Africa, Canada, the Netherlands, Australia, Mexico, and the United States. Sexual Justice / Cultural Justice will be of strong interest to students and researchers working in the areas of gender and feminist theory, politics, law, philosophy and sociology.
