Ambivalence of Culture in Ghana's Alleged Witches' Camps

A Micro-Level Approach to Human Rights
Autor:innen:
Verlag:
 2020

Zusammenfassung

Überall auf der Welt haben Menschenrechte im Laufe der Jahre an Bedeutung gewonnen. Trotz dieser Errungenschaften zeigen zahlreiche Ereignisse, die vor allem politisch motiviert sind, dass die Achtung der Menschenrechte in der Praxis leider noch lange nicht überall verwirklicht ist. Bisherige Studien dazu weisen auf eine starke Kluft zwischen Menschenrechtsnormen und Praxis hin. Was bislang in der akademischen Forschung fehlt, sind Studien zu traditionellen Glaubenssystemen. Der vorliegende Band schließt diese Lücke. Mithilfe der Grounded Theory wird der theoretische Hintergrund der Praktiken der Hexenverfolgung in Ghana beleuchtet und die Verbindung zu internationalen Menschenrechten hergestellt.
