"One of the less discussed achievements of the women's movement is
the option to reject the patronymic naming system, i.e. the
convention of women replacing their own family names by their
husbands' names when they get married. This book offers an analysis
of Israeli women's naming practices while tracing vocabularies of
nationalism, orientalism and individualism in women's accounts.
Such vocabularies are claimed to reinforce the local dominance of
familism rendering women's sense of belonging, ambivalent. The book
is an account of women's agency and positioning operating within
ethnic stratification structures, showing how the achievements of
the women's movement require continuous organized
protection"--Provided by publisher.
