| Video Discription | This webinar was recorded on February 22, 2023. Polygamy is a criminal offense according to the Israeli Penal Code. Yet, polygamy is permitted under the Shari’a law, which governs Muslims' personal status issues such as marriage and divorce in Israel. This contradiction between the way Muslim religious law and Israeli criminal law treat polygamy demonstrates a key problem in Israel’s adoption of the colonial legal framework of legal pluralism (when two or more legal systems coexist in the same social field). Relegating personal status issues such as marriage and divorce to the religious courts, Israel’s legal pluralism has become a contentious issue affecting Israelis of all religions. In this talk, Professor Aburabia examines the unique way in which Israel’s legal pluralism affects Muslim women. By focusing on the case of polygamy, she shows how Israel’s legal pluralism reinforces patriarchal values and the subjugation of women through the religious courts while depriving women of access to justice and the enforcement of the rule of law of the Israeli criminal code.
