Description

Hisham Sharabi's seminal work examines how traditional patriarchal authority structures in the Middle East have persisted through modernisation rather than disappearing. Neopatriarchy presents a critical analysis of how inherited patriarchal authority operates within contemporary states, families, clans, and religious institutions, maintaining its essence whilst adopting the outward forms of modernity. Sharabi identifies the petty-bourgeois elite as central to this paradox, arguing that their control has stalled political and social development by preventing the emergence of a fully empowered bourgeois class. This Oxford University Press publication provides essential theoretical frameworks for understanding the complex interplay between tradition and modernisation in Arab societies, making it invaluable for students and scholars of Middle Eastern studies, sociology, and political theory.

Key Features

Sharabi's Neopatriarchy offers a foundational theoretical framework for analysing how patriarchal structures have adapted to and persisted within modern Arab states and societies.

Published by Oxford University Press, this book delivers peer-reviewed scholarship on the relationship between tradition, modernisation, and social change across the Middle East.

The work examines how patriarchal authority manifests simultaneously at family, clan, state, and religious levels, revealing the complexity of social transformation in Arab societies.
