| Summary: | This article aims to analyse the impact of the manipulation of both the religious and the secular in women’s rights discourses and practices. The concept of secularisation and de-secularisation is problematised in the light of recognition of the limits of modernity. A further aim is to contribute towards balancing the possibility of a post-colonialist and post-secularist discourse on human and women’s rights which opens up the possibility of recognising the emancipatory potential of certain forms of religiously inspired feminism. To this end, it will be necessary to balance the contribution of various types of feminisms to alternative interpretations and practices from the perspective of an emancipatory and ecological interpretation of human rights. |
