Beschreibung
The human rights situation in Brunei has raised considerable concern in the international community due to Brunei?s Syariah Penal Code (SPCO) which went into effect on April 3, 2019 ? the law imposing death by stoning for extramarital sex and anal sex; and a wide range of restrictions that discriminate against women and gender minorities, and violates freedom of expression. Although Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah has described a de facto moratorium on capital punishment in Brunei ? stating that the death penalty would not be enforced in the implementation of the SPCO ? the sultan could reverse his decision on a whim; and the punishments of amputation and whipping could still be used. Even if its harshest provisions are not enforced, the law will serve its evident purpose: to cement discrimination against LGBT people and women. Hence this book endeavours to improve public policy in Brunei; by exploring both social scientific and Islamic approaches, so that human rights and gender equality can be improved in Brunei.
