A cross-disciplinary overview of women’s lives and status in the Middle East
Edited by Suad Joseph, this handbook surveys the historical, social, economic, political, religious, and cultural issues that have shaped women’s conditions and status in the Middle East. Its breadth connects questions about gender and women’s studies with regional history, feminist scholarship, and socio-political and socio-economic inquiry. The volume offers a wide-ranging reference point for approaching the subject through several fields rather than a single disciplinary lens.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Students and researchers in gender or women’s studies
- Readers exploring the Middle East through historical, political, or social inquiry
- Those interested in feminist and socio-economic studies
