from Part II - Case Studies
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 August 2019
The chapter summarizes the key themes of the book and looks at conclusions drawn from comparisons within the region. By pairing Tunisia with Lebanon, Morocco with Jordan, and Algeria with Egypt with respect to women’s rights regimes, one can look more closely at some of the patterns identified in the book that form the basis of the comparison between the Maghreb and the Middle East. This chapter then examines the broader implications of these women’s rights reforms for a post-Islamist era in the region. I return to the larger questions posed in this book about why autocrats adopt women’s rights and what the consequences are for women and women’s rights. I also discuss the implications of the changes in the Maghreb for understanding other parts of the world with Muslim-majority populations.
