摘要

2020年6月30日,科威特历史上首次庆祝任命了八名女法官。在妇女获得法官职位之前,2013年妇女被允许担任检察官,这是成为科威特法官的主要大门。截至2020年,女性检察官占科威特检察官总数的27%。这篇文章指出了科威特社会变革的驱动因素,该社会为妇女担任法官敞开了大门。它涉及任命女法官之前的2013-2020年五年期间,以及在2020年3月爆发的冠状病毒大流行中任命八名女法官时引发的辩论。探讨了三个问题:首先,科威特妇女在1967年进入法律研究领域50多年后,如何以及为什么在2020年被任命为法官?第二,通过科威特媒体公开表示反对任命妇女担任法官的形式有哪些?第三,哪些民间社会团体支持妇女担任法官,他们用什么论据来反驳反对派的论点?

Kuwaiti women’s entry into judgeship in 2020: The long journey from law graduates in 1967 to public prosecutors in 2013, and what happened on the path towards the judiciary
On 30 June 2020, Kuwait celebrated the appointment of eight female judges for the first time in the nation’s history. Women’s access to judgeship was preceded by the admittance of women as public prosecutors in 2013, which is the main gate to become a judge in Kuwait. As of 2020, female prosecutors constitute 27 per cent of the total number of public prosecutors in Kuwait. The article points out drivers for change in Kuwaiti society which opened up for women’s appointment as judges. It addresses the five-year period between 2013-2020 preceding the appointment of women judges, and debates that arose when eight women judges were appointed amidst the coronavirus pandemic which broke out in March 2020. Three questions are explored: First, how and why have Kuwaiti women been appointed as judges in 2020, more than five decades after women entered the field of law studies in 1967? Secondly, what forms of opposition were voiced in public through the Kuwaiti media against appointing women as judges? Thirdly, which civil society groups supported women’s entry into judgeship, and what arguments did they use to counter the arguments of the opposition?
