Women, Islam and the State is a comparative volume addressing the most serious gaps in previous treatments of this question. The political projects of modern nation states, the specificities of their nationalist histories and the positioning of Islam vis—vis diverse nationalisms are crucial to an understanding of the position of women, and this volume covers case studies which exemplify distinct political projects of different nation states and discusses their implications and consequences.
