Description
"In this groundbreaking study, Wanda Krause presents evidence of civil society emerging in some dynamic ways in the Arab Gulf. She looks at the key role women play in the United Arab Emirates by analyzing women in government-run organizations, Islamic-oriented associations and Islamist groups, and women's networks. Krause also expands the definition of civil society beyond its "western" biases. In this endeavor, she incorporates indigenous forms of action and a multitude of forms of women's agency. This book will be of interest to all who study the relationship between civil society and a variety of subjects, such as gender, Islamism, human rights, development, feminism, governmentality, security, globalization, and social networks."--Jacket.
