Universality and relativity of human rights from the perspective of Islam - case study of Saudi Arabia
Tošovská, Lucie ; Zemanová, Štěpánka (advisor) ; Novotná, Yvona (referee)
In my diploma thesis I focused on human rights in Islam from the universal and the culture comparative point of view. A goal of my work was to find out, whether it is possible to justify the human rights abuses under the terms of concept of cultural relativism in the Islamic civilisation. The thesis should answer a question if it is possible to apply the principles of cultural relativism in case of human rights abuses in Saudi Arabia. This was achieved by analyzing the most important international and regional tools for human rights protection. The thesis is divided into three chapters, which are dedicating to this issue.
Islam and women's rights: Case study of Saudi Arabia
Tošovská, Lucie ; Zemanová, Štěpánka (advisor) ; Novotná, Yvona (referee)
The issue of human rights - or rather women's rights - and their protection has become a very sensitive topic as of lately. Despite global efforts of upholding human rights we still encounter their violation and especially so in states where Islam is widespread. This work addresses the relation between Islam and human rights, especially women's rights, which tend to be suppressed in Islamic states. The work analyses basic international instruments for protection of human and women's rights in comparison to the Islamic conception. It most directly focuses on the example of Saudi Arabia, a state in which the violation of women's rights can be found most often.
