This book illustrates how Arab women have been engaging in three
ongoing, parallel struggles, before, during, and after the Arab
Spring, on three levels, namely: the political struggle to pave the
road for democracy, freedom, and reform; the social struggle to
achieve gender equality and fight all forms of injustice and
discrimination against women; and the legal struggle to chart new
laws which can safeguard both the political and the social gains.
The contributors argue that while the political upheavals were
oftentimes more prevalent and visible, they should not overshadow
the parallel social and legal revolutions which are equally
important, due to their long-term impacts on the region. The
chapters shed light on the intersections, overlaps and divergences
between these simultaneous, continuous gendered struggles and
unpacks their complexities and multiple implications, locally,
regionally, and internationally, across different countries and
through different phases.
