"Law, Cultural Studies and the 'Burqa Ban' Trend: An Interdisciplinary Handbook offers an in-depth and multi-perspective account of the 'burqa ban' trend. With a focus on Europe and America, this book examines the law at national and international levels. Its interdisciplinary approach encompasses ethics, gender studies, philosophy, political science and religion to provide much needed insights into value and identity politics, diversity, discrimination and human rights, in addition to the discussions surrounding the courts' contradictory judgments. The book also includes a first-hand account by a Muslim burqa-wearer, alongside contributions by leading academic researchers and legal professionals that provide food for thought that can benefit future discussions among scholars, students, legal professionals and policymakers. Analytical work is supplemented with, among other aspects, examinations of the frameworks that derive from dialectical thinking or ideas and theories about democracy, autonomy and male and white desire to control, conquer and dominate."--Back cover

This chapter embarks on a socio-legal analysis of the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (ECCC) to capture the general characteristics of the ECCC as a hybrid court and, moreover, to home in on some of the important measures and mechanisms that its mandate provide for. The first part entails an account of the way the ECCC came into existence in the first instance, and this reveals factors that make a non-separation of politics and law difficult. The second part identifies some pro-reform aspects about victims' rights in terms of reparations and—in the case of rape—an anti-ethical cum ultra-conservative outlook of rights in terms of recognition of the crimes committed. It seems therefore that the complexities and compromises of the ECCC reappear in its efforts to construct an enhanced recognition of victims and in its judicial reasoning on rape, which arguably introduces an almost absolute justice deficit.
