Pronouncing and Persevering: Gender and the Discourses of Disputing in an African Islamic Court - Chicago Series in Law and Society
Susan F. Hirsch
Susan Hirsch's observations of Islamic courts uncover how Muslim women actively use legal processes to transform their domestic lives. This achieves victories on some fronts, but also reinforces their image as subordinate to men through the speech they produce in court.
