Description

First published in 1980, this Routledge Library Edition examines the position of women in the United Arab Emirates during the second half of the 20th century, exploring how Islamic Law theoretically granted women rights and privileges in family life, marriage, education and economic pursuits. The book argues that whilst these legal frameworks aimed to improve women's status in society, the actual realisation of these rights was often limited by the interpretations of religious scholars, influenced by local traditions and prevailing social trends. Particularly in matters of family life and marriage, women frequently did not receive the rights to which they were legally entitled. This scholarly work provides essential historical context for understanding the complex interplay between Islamic legal principles and their practical application in UAE society, making it valuable for students and researchers in anthropology, sociology, women's studies and Middle Eastern history.

Key Features

The Women of the United Arab Emirates examines women's legal rights under Islamic Law in family, marriage, education and economic domains during the late 20th century.

Published by Routledge and part of the Library Editions series on Women in Islamic Societies, offering academic analysis of gender and social structures.

Explores the gap between Islamic legal provisions and their practical implementation, shaped by religious interpretation and local cultural traditions.

Essential resource for scholars, students and researchers studying women's history, Islamic law, UAE society and anthropological perspectives on gender roles.
