Honor’s Global Future examines the evolving concepts of honor, justice, and fairness in our rapidly globalizing world. It explores how traditional cultural norms are being reshaped by modern values like individual autonomy and human rights, and how these shifts impact justice systems globally. The book uniquely addresses the tension between cultural preservation and universal human rights, a pertinent issue as societies grapple with honor killings and the treatment of marginalized communities. Interestingly, the book highlights how evolving honor norms influence legal and policy frameworks, necessitating a re-evaluation of honor to promote justice.
The book adopts a multidisciplinary approach, drawing from historical analyses and contemporary studies to understand these dynamics. Structured in four parts, it begins by introducing foundational concepts, then explores the evolution of honor norms amidst globalization, urbanization, and technological advancements. Case studies from around the world illustrate the impact on justice systems, leading to policy recommendations for a more just and equitable future. This approach allows the reader to understand the complexities of globalization and social change.
