In Palestine, family law is a controversial topic publicly debated
by representatives of the state, Sharia establishment, and civil
society. Yet to date no such law exists. This book endeavors to
determine why by focusing on the conceptualization of gender and
analyzing "law in the making" and the shifts in debates
(2012-2018). In 2012, a ruling on khul'-divorce was issued by the
Sharia Court and was well received by civil society, but when the
debate shifted in 2018 to how to "harmonize" international law with
Islamic standards, the process came to a standstill. These
developments and the various power relations cannot be properly
understood without taking into consideration the terminology used
and redefined in these debates.
