- Description
- This book examines zina laws in some Muslim contexts and communities in order to explore connections between the criminalisation of sexuality, gender-based violence and women’s rights activism. Zina is sexual intercourse between people not married to each other. The Violence is Not Our Culture Campaign and the Women Living Under Muslim Laws network present this comparative study and feminist analysis of zina laws as a contribution to the broader objective of ending violence in the name of ‘culture’.
American protestant women and the Orient in the nineteenth century

- Description
- The author offers a new look at women's involvement in the mission movement, with a focus on the antebellum era. Most scholars have argued that the emergence of women as a dominant force in American Protestant missions in the late nineteenth century was an outgrowth of nascent feminist activism in the various denominations. This book suggests that the feminization of the later mission movement actually stemmed in large part from images of the 'degraded Oriental woman' that popular evangelical literature had been circulating since the 1790s and that the increasing focus on and involvement of women was supported by male denominational leaders as an important strategy for reaching the world with the Christian gospel. In the late eighteenth through the early nineteenth centuries, popular evangelical literature began circulating descriptions of women of the 'Orient' designed to illustrate the need of those women for the Christian gospel. Such powerful and widely disseminated images demonstrated to young American women their relatively privileged position in society and, throughout the nineteenth century, led many to support the cause of missions with their money and sometimes their lives. A belief in the desperate need of 'Oriental' women for salvation and social uplift was largely responsible for feminizing the American Protestant foreign mission movement

- Description
- This special issue tries to help to understand the 'woman question' in modern Middle East history and demonstrates the complexity of the struggles women faced as they organized locally, regionally, and internationally for reforms to improve women's status in society. Camron Amin, Kathryn Libal, and Orit Bashkin focus on the movement for women's rights in Iran, Turkey, and Iraq, respectively, while Charlotte Weber considers the aims of women organizing across national boundaries in the context of the Eastern Women's Congresses at Damascus in 1930 and Tehran in 1932. Ellen Dubois and Haleh Emrani present a speech by the primary organizer of these two conferences, available in English translation for the first time. The term 'woman question' compresses into two words a complex social, cultural, and political phenomenon that had at its center the issue of women's place in society. The woman question was central to debates over the form the nation-state should take after liberation from foreign occupation and the achievement of national independence.

- Exploring the contemporary dynamics of sexuality in the Middle East, this volume offers an insight into this much debated issue.It focuses on the role of sexuality in political and social struggles and the politicization of sexuality and gender in the region. Contributors illustrate the complexity of discourses, debates and issues, focusing in particular on the situation in Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, and Turkey, and explain how they cannot be reduced to a single underlying factor such as religion, or a simple binary opposition between the religious right and feminists.

- Description
- Bucar argues that modest clothing represents much more than social control or religious orthodoxy. Today, headscarves are styled to frame the head and face in interesting ways, while colors and textures express individual tastes and challenge aesthetic preconceptions. Brand-name clothing and accessories serve as conveyances of social distinction and are part of a multimillion-dollar ready-to-wear industry. Even mainstream international chains are offering lines especially for hijabis. More than just a veil, this is pious fashion from head to toe, which engages with a range of aesthetic values related to moral authority, consumption, and selfhood.
