by Lila Abu - Lughod (Editor)
Focuses on the 'woman question' in the Middle East, when gender became a highly charged nationalist issue tied up in complex ways with the West. This book is a radical challenge to any easy equation of modernity with progress, emancipation, and the empowerment of women.
