The veil is enmeshed within a complex web of relations encompassing politics, religion and gender, and conflicts over the nature of power, legitimacy, belief, freedom, agency and emancipation. Using work from contributors across a range of disciplinary backgrounds and locations, this book explores the use of the veil following the Iranian Islamic revolution, Islamic fashion and marketing, the political role of the headscarf, the veiling of other religious groups such as Jews and Christians, and secular forms of modest dress to form the most comprehensive book ever conceived on this topic.
