  • Women's hair and bodily figures are imagined by believers as rather like the irresistible keening of the Greek sirens, and just as Odysseus's crew avoided their fatal bewitchment by stopping their ears with beeswax, so society can seal the Pandora's box of feminine charms by covering up tresses and curves with floppy plain cloth. The dispatch of hundreds of thousands of men to the front pulled women inexorably into the labor market, although only about a fourth work outside the home today. [...] Khomeini's revolution was a populist one, and women demonstrators and campaigners played a key role in it.

  • From Muhammad Reza's relationship with his father to his nuclear energy policy, this detailed account provides insight not only into the Shah's life but also into the history of modern Iran. Jordan's unique position in Cold War politics also allowed King Husayn's career to overlap with the fall of the British Empire and the rise of the United States' global influence. The author argues that punishment during the Medieval period was a vital part of society under Seljuq rulers, and that peoples' conception of punishment went far beyond the simplistic understanding that suffering in life would lead to rewards in the hereafter. Gender and Violence in the Middle East is divided into four parts, tracing the violent degradation of women in the Middle East, the complex inequities of gender-b...

  • [...] if it is the mother who is summoning the child, then the directive is that she should interrupt the recommended ritual prayer and respond to her mother.60 Ayatullah Saanei makes use of this new epistemology and hermeneutic strategies when dealing with other issues pertaining to present-day society as well, such as the legality or prohibition of interest (riba) and use of gambling (qumar) instruments, minority rights, religious pluralism, bio-medical ethics, right of a wife to unilaterally divorce her husband, permissibility of women to occupy the position of judges or the highest religious post, and the age at which a person would become religiously accountable (mukallaf) and able to transact a marriage.61 Conclusion In the works of Ayatullah Saanei, one observes a major epistemol...

  • I only had two weeks in Iran. I traveled there alone with my Italian passport, hoping to shoot the second part of my first documentary, "They Call Me Muslim," a project I undertook as a Fulbright fellow at Berkeley's Graduate School of Journalism. Having lived in Paris myself as a teenager, I was intrigued by what was going on in France. The law on religious symbols affected some 800 Muslim girls, and a few who refused to take off the hijab were even expelled from school. It seemed paradoxical that a country like France one of the true models of democracy in the West and a country so deeply rooted in the revolutionary principles of Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité - was expelling girls from public schools for exercising their Liberté on a personal matter. France seemed to be denying its peo...

  • In other words, Israel and the U.S. claim the right to abrogate Iran's right to develop nuclear energy. The Israeli/U.S. position has no basis in international law or in anything other than the arrogance of Israel and the United States. The United States also qualifies for crippling sanctions. Indeed, the U.S. is over-qualified. On the basis of lies and intentional deception of the U.S. Congress, the U.S. public, the UN and NATO, the U.S. gov- ernment invaded Afghanistan and Iraq and used the "war on terror" that Washington orchestrated to overturn U.S. civil liberties enshrined in the U.S. Constitution. One million Iraqis have paid with their lives for America's crimes and four million are displaced. Iraq and its infrastructure are in ruins, and Iraq's professional elites, necessary to...
