Lebanese Women at the Crossroads

Caught between Sect and Nation

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book argues that women are caught between sect and nation in Lebanon due to the division between religious and civil law. Consequently, a dual struggle is necessary, the first for women's equal political and civil rights and the second for women's equal legal rights in relation to personal status law.
