and the Arab Spring -- Islam and revolution : Shiite women
in Lebanon -- Islam and resistance : Iraqi women -- The
violence of occupation : Palestinian women in the West
Bank and Gaza Strip -- The way forward.
520 "How are women in the Arab world negotiating the male-
dominated character of Islamist movements? Is their
participation in the Islamic political project including
violent resistance against foreign invasion and occupation
the result of coercion, or of choice? Questioning
assumptions about female powerlessness in Muslim societies,
Maria Holt and Haifaa Jawad explore the resistance
struggles taking place in Lebanon, Iraq, Palestine, and
elsewhere in the Middle East from the perspectives of the
women involved. The authors make extensive use of vivid
personal testimonies as they examine the influence of such
factors as religion, patriarchy, and traditional practices
in determining women s modes of participation in
conflicts. In the process, they add to our knowledge not
only of how women are affected by political violence, but
also of how their involvement is beginning to change the
rules that govern their societies."--|cPublisher's
