This comprehensive book delves into the intricate relationship between women, money, and political participation in the Middle East and North Africa, with a specific focus on examining women's capacity to engage with local political systems. It explores the various factors that facilitate or hinder women's participation in politics, particularly in the context of Arab countries, which are often characterized as rentier states. Foreign aid, worker remittances, and oil-related investment play a significant role in shaping gender-related social norms and expectations, both within the state and among the domestic population.
The research presented in this book expands the discourse on women in rentier political economies and highlights their active roles as participants and agents within regional frameworks for economic development. It sheds light on the ways in which these financial flows from abroad have influenced women's access to political power, their participation in decision-making processes, and their ability to advocate for gender equality.
The book also examines the challenges and barriers that women face in pursuing political careers, including cultural norms, patriarchal structures, and limited economic opportunities. It explores the strategies that women have employed to overcome these obstacles and achieve greater political representation, including grassroots activism, social movements, and political alliances.
Overall, this book provides a valuable contribution to the study of women, money, and political participation in the Middle East and North Africa, offering a nuanced and comprehensive analysis of the complex dynamics that shape women's political engagement in these regions.
