Abstract

En mai 2012, le tribunal de Cologne interdisait la circoncision et déclenchait une polémique juridique, politique et religieuse majeure. Rappelons brièvement que le jugement ne visait pas spécifiquement la communauté juive et que la pratique de la circoncision est commune au judaïsme et à l'islam. Cette polémique récente est l'occasion d'un retour sur le sens de cette pratique inscrite depuis des temps immémoriaux dans l'histoire du peuple juif. Elle apparaît comme le symptôme d'une difficulté moderne à saisir le sens d'un rituel qui trouve son origine dans le texte de la Torah, et qui est l'expression de l'inscription dans la généalogie juive de la soumission à l'injonction divine faite à Abraham. Il existe une tension historique irrésolue entre l'affirmation moderne de la nécessaire préservation de l'intégrité du corps et du libre arbitre de l'individu, que ce rituel de la circoncision semble contredire. La question se pose dès lors : pourquoi cette tension a-t-elle été ravivée et quelle est la nature du malaise dont elle témoigne ?

Abstract

An investigation of how the expansion of modern medicine in Turkey transformed young boys’ experiences of circumcision. In Turkey, circumcision is viewed as both a religious obligation and a rite of passage for young boys, as communities celebrate the ritual through gatherings, gifts, and special outfits. Yet the procedure is a potentially painful and traumatic ordeal. With the expansion of modern medicine, the social position of sünnetçi (male circumcisers) became subject to the institutional arrangements of Turkey’s evolving health care and welfare system. In the transition from traditional itinerant circumcisers to low-ranking health officers in the 1960s and hospital doctors in the 1990s, the medicalization of male circumcision has become entangled with state formation, market fetishism, and class inequalities. Based on Oyman Başaran’s extensive ethnographic and historical research, Circumcision and Medicine in Modern Turkey is a close examination of the socioreligious practice of circumcision in twenty-five cities and their outlying towns and villages in Turkey. By analyzing the changing subjectivity of medical actors who seek to alleviate suffering in male circumcision, Başaran offers a psychoanalytically informed alternate approach to the standard sociological arguments surrounding medicalization and male circumcision.

Abstract

Het boek 'Recht en Gender in België' hanteert een zeer brede benadering, zowel wat de te behandelen juridische disciplines, als wat de invulling van een genderperspectief betreft. Het zorgt ervoor dat bijna alle relevante gendergerelateerde gebeurtenissen van het laatste decennium aangeraakt worden: gendergerelateerd geweld, de niet-consensuele verspreiding van seksueel getinte beelden, grensoverschrijdend gedrag en seksisme, nieuwe procedure voor de aanpassing van de geslachtsregistratie gebaseerd op zelfbeschikking, genderongelijkheid op de arbeidsmarkt en genderrolpatronen ... Het boek behandelt een breed spectrum aan rechtsdomeinen: van grondwettelijk recht en arbeidsrecht, over strafrecht, fiscaal recht en relatievermogensrecht, tot migratierecht en recht en technologie. Aangezien het Europees recht integraal deel uitmaakt van de Belgische rechtsorde, komen ook het EU-recht, de instrumenten van de Raad van Europa en de rechtspraak van het Europees Hof voor de Rechten van de Mens aan bod.

Abstract

Surgical Guide to Circumcision is a compendium of the who, what, where, why, and most importantly, the how of circumcision. Given that one third of the world’s males have undergone this most ancient of surgical procedures, a contemporary resource on the subject is in order. Most circumcisions are elective with no acute medical necessity; that is, most are done for cultural reasons. Thus, in addition to being a standard surgical guide for those who perform circumcision, this book is an anthology of circumcision, from its prehistoric roots to its present day admixture of religion, culture, and medicine. Surgical Guide to Circumcision is a fully illustrated, step-by-step guide to the most common techniques of circumcision and addresses aspects such as informed consent, religious and cultural sensitivities, pre-exam, post-care, pain control, and prevention and management of potential complications. Written by experts in the field, Surgical Guide to Circumcision will appeal to family physicians, pediatricians, obstetricians, midwives, nurses, urologists, and anyone with a general interest in circumcision.
