- Description
- This book introduces many remarkable women, who organized religious and political movements, fought in anti-colonial wars, ran away to escape arranged marriages, and during the 1990s began successful campaigns for gender parity in national legislatures. The book also explores the apparent paradox in the conflicting images of African women - as singularly oppressed and dominated by men, but also as strong, resourceful, and willing to challenge governments and local traditions to protect themselves and their families

- Description
- The writings show how gender relations have been constructed on the African continent and reflect the changes in approach and inquiry that have been brought about as the authors consider gender identities and difference in their work. Specific themes covered here include the contestation and representation of gender, femininity and masculinity: livelihoods and life ways: gender and religion, gender and culture: gender and governance.

- Description
- In this book the author takes a gendered approach to labor conflicts, anticolonial struggles, and citizenship in modern Lebanon. The author looks at the conditions and experiences of women workers at the French Tobacco industry. Looking at culturally inscribed roles for Middle Eastern women, the book highlights traditions of public activism and militancy among rural women that are in turn adapted to the spaces of the factory. Women employed distinct strategies involving kinship, sectarian, gender, and class ties to enhance their work conditions and social benefits. The author argues that the condition of women can only be explained by exploring the shifting relationship between culture, societal arrangements, and economic settings.

- Description

Het Nederlandse koloniale bestuur richtte in 1959 een bureau op dat de socio-demografische structuur van de bevolking in kaart bracht en startte met de opbouw van een permanente bevolkingsregistratie. Niet alleen werden huizen zelfs van binnen letterlijk in kaart gebracht en wordt er genoteerd of er slaapkamers zijn, niet alleen wordt op de persoonskaarten van vrouwen bij elk van haar kinderen apart een vader genoteerd, maar ook probeerden ambtenaren in het familieboekje dat op naam stond van de vrouw alle zwangerschappen te registreren, zelfs de voortijdig afgebroken zwangerschappen. .Rede ter ere van de aanvaarding van het ambt van bijzonder hoogleraar Politieke geschiedenis van gender in Nederland.

- Description
- This book is a history of an unusual resilient cultural system. The Minangkabau culture of West Sumatra, Indonesia, is well known as the world's largest matrilineal culture: Minangkabau people are also Muslim and famous for their piety. In this book, Hadler examines the changing ideas of home and family in Minangkabau from the late eighteenth century to the 1930s. Minangkabau has experienced a sustained and sometimes violent debate between Muslim reformists and preservers of indigenous culture. With the incorporation of highland West Sumatra into the Dutch empire in the aftermath of this war, the colonial state entered an ongoing conversation. These existing tensions between colonial ideas of progress, Islamic reformism, and local custom ultimately strengthened the matriarchate. The endurance of the matriarchate is testimony to the fortitude of local tradition, the unexpected flexibility of reformist Islam, and the ultimate weakness of colonialism.
