It offers a distinct perspective that takes into account the diversity of the Arab world and presents a theoretical framework on the study of women?s empowerment amid the transformations that have shaped the social and political fabrics of Arab societies. Empowering Women after the Arab Spring represents cutting-edge research from a variety of academic disciplines ? anthropology, political science, and sociology ? and presents comparative analyses from places including the United Arab Emirates, Syria, Egypt, and Tunisia. This volume offers one of the first systematic efforts to combine qualitative and quantitative research to draw a more accurate picture of the realities of Middle Eastern women. . 410 0$aComparative Feminist Studies,$x2752-3217 606 $aEthnology$zMiddle East 606 $aCulture 606 $aMiddle East$xPolitics and government 606 $aSex 606 $aCulture$xStudy and teaching 606 $aMiddle Eastern Culture 606 $aMiddle Eastern Politics 606 $aGender Studies 606 $aCultural Studies 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aMiddle East$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aSex. 615 0$aCulture$xStudy and teaching. 615 14$aMiddle Eastern Culture. 615 24$aMiddle Eastern Politics. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aCultural Studies. 676 $a306.0956 702 $aShalaby$b Marwa$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMoghadam$b Valentine M$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910150196603321 996 $aEmpowering Women after the Arab Spring$92516569 997 $aUNINA
