Abstract
Francuskom zakonu iz 2011. godine kojim je muslimankama onemogućeno javno nošenje burke i nikaba u radu se pristupa putem analize domaćega medijskog izvještavanja o njegovu stupanju na snagu. Istaknuti aspekti rasprave na najširoj političkoj i akademskoj razini platforma su za razmatranje njihova (ne)pojavljivanja u medijima te interpretaciju takvog naglašavanja ili zanemarivanja pri hrvatskoj medijskoj translaciji.
Od geopolitičke i kulturne kontekstualizacije slučaja, preko problematike sekularizma, konceptualizacije privatnoga i javnoga te svetoga i profanoga, do tematike ženskih prava i fundamentalizma, zabrana burke posreduje u propitivanju određenih normi i vrijednosti koje se odašilju hrvatskoj javnosti, ujedno propitujući konzistentnost općih polazišnih rasprava.The paper deals with the topic of 2011 French law, which bans the wearing of Muslim burqas and niqabs, by presenting the analysis of Croatian media reports on its enactment. The prominent aspects of the controversy on its widest political and academic level are used as a platform for considering their media presence (or absence) as well as for the interpretation of such emphasis or disregard in the case of Croatian media translation.
Ranging from the geopolitical and cultural case contextualization, through the issues of secularism, the conceptualization of the private/public and the sacred/profane, to the topic of women\u27s rights and fundamentalism, the burqa ban intermediates in questioning certain norms and values which are being broadcast to the Croatian public. At the same time, it questions the consistency of initial general discussions of the topic
