Essay, Research Paper
Saudi Arabia, which is located in the Middle East, is known as a religious state where religion and government are one in the same. As the Islamic Religion is the government, its book, the Quran (Koran) is the foundation and structure of the laws in Saudi Arabia. As dictated in the Koran, men hold all governmental positions while the women stay home and perform domestic duties. This seems similar to what the trends of the 1950’s in western culture, but this behaviour occurs commonly in Saudi Arabia today. Saudi Arabia is controlled by male Muslim fundamentalist who reject western culture and concepts like equal opportunity. This is the reason why women in Saudi Arabia, Muslim or not, are highly discriminated against. Women in Saudi Arabia are denied the rights that were laid out by the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The Muslim Religion, the government and the men of Saudi Arabia treat women as less than equals, despite nationality, social class or religion. It is customary for men to treat all women as the weaker sex, as this idea has been implanted in them from birth. They are taught this by their father?s example, it in reinforced by the religion and praised by the government. All women despite birth country, religion, and social class are subject to this harsh treatment.
