About this Product
The book provides theoretical insight and analysis of the power relations between womens activism, Islamist thought and praxis, and the Egyptian state (1970s to 1990s). Contemporary feminist debates among womens NGOs are examined, and the different perceptions of gender roles among Islamist men and women are presented and contrasted. Three feminist streams are identified as both shaping and being shaped by, the dynamics of interaction between political Islam and state regimes.
