Emadi takes a long look at the role of development and modernization policies implemented by the state in the pre- and post-Soviet eras, under the Taliban, and beyond. He finds that such policies have failed to bring about much- needed change and improvement for women. Modernization strategies benefited only a small segment of urban women and left the plight of rural women unchanged. Although a small segment of middle- and upper-class women organized themselves and fought to bring about changes in their status and to end gender inequality, their efforts alone did not meet with much success. Islamic orthodoxy and orthopraxy in the Taliban era restricted women's freedom of movement, access to education, and medical care. Using personal accounts not readily available to researchers or scholars, Emadi explores the diverse factors that contributed to women's oppression both at home and in society. This study provides a detailed analysis of state policies toward women's emancipation within the context of a traditional Islamic society. It chronicles the course of the women's movement and women's organizations still active in the political arena and puts forth an alternative plan to involve women in the reconstruction process in both urban and rural areas. 606 $aWomen$zAfghanistan$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWomen in development$zAfghanistan$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWomen$zAfghanistan$xPolitical activity$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPatriarchy$zAfghanistan 606 $aWomen in Islam$zAfghanistan 615 0$aWomen$xHistory 615 0$aWomen in development$xHistory 615 0$aWomen$xPolitical activity$xHistory 615 0$aPatriarchy 615 0$aWomen in Islam 676 $a305.4/09581/0904 700 $aEmadi$b Hafizullah$0673070 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910971524703321 996 $aRepression, resistance, and women in Afghanistan$94341164 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03515nam 2200625Ia 450 001 9911006626103321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786611871956 010 $a9781281871954 010 $a1281871958 010 $a9789812560032 010 $a9812560033 035 $a(CKB)1000000000401236 035 $a(EBL)1223211 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000303919 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)12088042 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000303919 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10276523 035 $a(PQKB)11777837 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC1223211 035 $a(WSP)00005026 035 $a(Perlego)850278 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000401236 100 $a20030425d2003 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aNano-engineering in science and technology $ean introduction to the world of nano-design /$fMichael Rieth 210 $aSingapore ;$aRiver Edge, NJ $cWorld Scientific$dc2003 215 $a1 online resource (164 p.) 225 0 $aSeries on the foundations of natural science and technology ;$vv. 6 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a9789812380746 311 08$a9812380744 311 08$a9789812380739 311 08$a9812380736 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 133-138) and index. 327 $ach. 1.
