Journal Title: The Journal of Human Rights - Year 2006, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

In the modern era, identity and identity-finding are influenced by three trends: modernism, post modernism and trans-post modernism. In each trend, a specific approach towards the issue of identity is seen. This article first deals with each of the three trends as well as their impact on the issue of identity, particularly women’s identity and then reviews the picture presented from women’s identity and rights in the Bible (the Old Testament and the New Testament) چکیده در دوران معاصر، هویت و هویت‌یابی تحت‌تأثیر سه جریان مدرنیسم، پست‌مدرنیسم و فرا پست‌مدرنیسم قرار دارد. در دل هر یک از این سه جریان، رویکرد خاصی به مسئلة هویت را شاهدیم. در این مقاله، نخست به هر یک از جریان‌های فکری مذکور و تأثیر آنها بر مسئلة هویت، به‌ویژه هویت زنان، می‌پردازیم. پس از این مقدمه، تصویر ارائه شده از هویت و حقوق زن در کتاب مقدس (عهد عتیق و عهد جدید) بازکاوی می‌شود.
