Jad traces the transformation of the Palestinian women's movement
from the 1930s to the post-Oslo period and through the Second
Intifada to examine the often-fraught relationship between women
and nationalism in Palestine. Offering one of the first intensive
studies of Islamist women's activism, Jad also explores the impact
of emerging feminist NGOs in depoliticizing the secular Palestinian
women's movement. Studying these two developments together
illuminates the nature of women's engagement in the Palestinian
space, challenging myths of gender roles' ""immutability"" under
Islamand the supposed ""modernizing"" benefits of Western-style
activism.
