The Tunisian Womens Rights Movement

Tunisian women have received significant attention for their active participation in preserving and extending womens rights since 2011. However, their activism and latest achievements should be considered not a recent phenomenon but rather part and parcel of a distinctive local history that has included women as agents of change.

This book examines Tunisian womens lived experiences, as individuals and as a group, within a sociohistorical framework that uncovers the enduring feminine footprint over centuries and eventually underpins and defines their most recent fight for gender equality in postrevolutionary Tunisia. The historic and current presentation of Tunisian womens public and civic engagement distinguishes between different types of womens objectives in order to examine womens activism holistically as it evolved in the local context.

The Tunisian Womens Rights Movement will be of interest to students and scholars of Tunisia, North African, and Middle East Studies and gender in the Arab world.

Jane D. Tchacha is Professor of Modern Languages at Bentley University, USA.

Khedija Arfaoui is an independent scholar based in Tunisia.
