Despre această carte electronică

Until now the bulk of the literature about the veil has been written by outsiders who do not ‎themselves veil. This literature often assumes a condescending tone about veiled women, assuming ‎that they are making uninformed decisions choices about veiling makes them subservient to a ‎patriarchal culture and religion. “Rethinking Muslim Women and the Veil” offers an alternative ‎viewpoint, based on the thoughts and experiences of Muslim women themselves.‎


This is the first time a clear and concise book-length argument has been made for the compatibility ‎between veiling and modernity. Katherine Bullock uncovers positive aspects of the veil that are ‎frequently not perceived by outsiders.‎


‎“Rethinking Muslim Women and the Veil” looks at the colonial roots of the negative Western ‎stereotype of the veil. It presents interviews with Muslim women to discover their thoughts and ‎experiences with the veil in Canada. The book also offers a positive theory of veiling. The author ‎argues that in consumer capitalist cultures, women can find wearing the veil a liberation from the ‎stifling beauty game that promotes unsafe and unhealthy ideal body images for women. This book ‎also includes an extensive bibliography on topics related to Muslim women and the veil.‎
