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
