U.S. Foreign Policy and Muslim Women’s Human Rights by Kelly J. Shannon
Requirements: .PDF reader, 2 MB
Overview: A fresh interpretation of U.S. relations with the Muslim world since 1979
Americans’ concerns about women’s human rights in Muslim countries were triggered by the Iranian Revolution of 1979 and have evolved within the context of long-standing Western stereotypes about Muslims, as well as transnational feminism and the global human rights movement. As these frameworks simultaneously competed against and reinforced one another, U.S. public conversations about Muslim women intensified, culminating in feminist campaigns and U.S. policies that aimed to defend women’s rights in Islamic countries—such was the case with the Clinton administration’s decision not to recognize the Taliban regime after they seized control of Afghanistan in 1996.
