Womens Empowerment
in Turkey and Beyond

Womens Empowerment in Turkey and Beyond offers a methodologically, theoretically, and empirically rich analysis of womens empowerment in male-dominated societies, juxtaposing the Turkish case in comparative perspective.

The volume explores institutional and societal obstacles against womens empowerment in patriarchal communities, how women cope and bargain with patriarchy in such societies, and how they try to achieve better living standards for themselves and their families. It also pinpoints areas for improvement in womens empowerment via institutional and societal change in the areas of education, economics, politics, and social life. Interdisciplinary contributors offer in-depth fieldwork analyses as well as rigorous statistical techniques. The multi-disciplinary and multi-method nature of the book provides both breadth and depth to the study of womens empowerment and offers fertile ground for further research on gender politics.

Interdisciplinary in nature, Womens Empowerment in Turkey and Beyond will be of great interest to scholars of Gender Politics, Turkish Studies, and Womens Empowerment.

The chapters were originally published as a special issue of Turkish Studies.
