This volume presents a pioneering collection of analyses focused on the ideologies and activities of formal womens organizations and informal womens groups across a range of Arab countries. With contributions on Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, Iraq, Egypt, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, Yemen, and the Arab diaspora in the United States, Mapping Arab Womens Movements delineates similarities and differences between historical and contemporary efforts towards greater gender justice. The authors explore the origins of womens movements, trace their development during the past century, and address the impact of counter-movements, alliances, and international collaborations within the region and beyond.
