- Description
- The author uses ethnographic investigation of everyday veiling practices among Muslim women in the city of Helsinki, Finland, as a lens through which to reflect on and advance understanding of matters concerning Muslim dress in international Muslim minorities contexts. She is connecting varied realms of practice, demonstrating how domains such as fashion, materiality, city spaces and gendered spatial behaviour, private life, religious beliefs, and cosmopolitan social conditions are bound up together. The empirical chapters are based on interviews with forty-six Muslim women based in Helsinki, comprising Finnish converts (frequently through marriage to Muslim migrants), Somalis, Shi’a Afghanis, Shi’a Iranians and Shi’a Iraqi women.

- Description
- In this analysis of how Western and Iranian feminism both converge and conflict the author makes connections among feminism, imperialism and the discourses of global sisterhood. She investigates topics including the state-sponsored Women’s Organization of Iran and the involvement of feminists such as Betty Friedan and Gloria Steinem in the Iranian feminism movement before and during the 1979 revolution. She examines the veiled woman in the films of Tahmineh Milani, Ziba Mir-Hosseini and Kim Longinotto, and Mahnaz Afzali.

- Description
- Pamflet van de in Frankrijk wonende Iraanse vluchteling Chahdortt Djavann tegen het gebruik van hoofddoekjes, sluiers en andere bedekkingen waarachter veel islamitische vrouwen zich in het openbare leven moeten verschuilen in islamitische of westerse landen. Dit tegen de achtergrond van de discussie die met name in Frankrijk en andere Europese landen gevoerd wordt over de vraag: moet de sluier wel of niet verboden worden
