Abstract

RAMIREZ, Ángeles. Other feminisms? Muslim associations and women’s participation in Morocco. Etnográfica [online]. 2006, vol.10, n.1, pp.107-119. ISSN 0873-6561.

This article discusses some women’s movements in Morocco. Through the analysis of the positions adopted by Islamic and Feminist groups about the construction of womanhood in these groups, the article tries to show that the dichotomous model (Islamists against Feminists) oversimplifies the explanation of these processes. Ethnography makes possible other more nuanced approaches to the topic.

Keywords : womens movements; islamist associations; feminism; Morocco.
