| Description | This book presents from a historical context feminism as a story of colonial and postcolonial interactions between Western and Muslim societies. Stretching from the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, the book shows how changes in women’s lives and feminist strategies have consistently reflected wider changes in national and global politics and economics. Muslim women, like non-Muslim women in various colonized societies and non-white and poor women in the West, had to negotiate their demands for rights within other forms of struggle—for national independence or against occupation, racism, and economic inequality. It includes stories of encounters between women and men from South Asia, Britain and the United States that led them, as if they were looking in a mirror and reconsider norms in their own society, including cherished ideas about women’s roles and rights. |
