January 21, 2011 Ban the Burqa?
resident Nicolas Sarkozy has declared that the burqa is unwelcome in
France, saying that it is a symbol of subservience that makes them into
"prisoners behind a screen". President Barack Obama in contrast has
defended hijab as "indivisible from the freedom to practice one's
religion", and has pledged that the US government will continue to
punish those who deny the right of women to wear hijab. In Australia

This
public forum at UNSW brings together leading figures in this debate in

role of the state in the regulation of dress.
