Are Rights Frameworks, even Islamic Feminism, Adequate for Women? An Anthropological View

 

Mada Al-Carmel, The Arab Center for Applied Social Research is pleased to invite you to a lecture by Lila Abu-Lughod, Professor of Social Science at Columbia University. Her work, strongly ethnographic and mostly based in Egypt, has focused on three broad issues: the relationship between cultural forms and power; the politics of knowledge and representation; and the dynamics of gender and the question of women's rights in the Middle East.
