However, their participation in the 1979 revolution aimed at deposing Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was remarkable, albeit potentially unsuccessful. Ironically, they may have suffered more consequences from the changes introduced compared to any other group, and they stand to face further losses from the proposed reforms by the current regime's leaders. This volume meticulously documents the role of women in the revolution, the motivations behind their involvement, and their subsequent outcomes. The authors explore the status of women in pre-revolutionary society, the impact of Islamic principles on their lives, and the transformative changes witnessed throughout the twentieth century as more women entered the workforce and public sphere. They then delve into recent political events, highlighting the participation of working-class, rural, and educated women, as well as activists from both the right and left. Finally, they examine the implications of recent government policies that seek to restrict women's activities beyond the home and promote a return to more traditional roles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 453g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367217365\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Guity Nashat","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44696581898490,"sku":"9780367217365","price":43.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1698416519789_book.jpg?v=1698477425","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/women-and-revolution-in-iran-9780367217365","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
