The Legacy of the Sultanate of Oman - An absolute Monarchy facilitating Dictatorship and Disregard for Human Rights
BücherAngebote / Angebote:
With Qaboos bin Said al Said becoming the self-appointed leader of Oman in 1970 (after overthrowing his father in a palace coup) Oman's human rights situation is among the worst in the world. Human rights violations in Oman seem to include abductions and arbitrary arrests, as well as severe restrictions on freedom of press with many journalists and activists being arrested under penal code provisions which criminalize insulting the Sultan, hence the current status quo of severe restrictions of public freedoms in the country. Critical, but also deeply sensitive and humane, this book endeavours to improve public policy in Oman. Social challenges - such as gender inequality and press freedom violations - are also explored in this work. Highly innovative and profound, this book explores social scientific-, ethical and Islamic approaches, so that human rights, social equality and public freedoms can be improved in Oman.
