110. Women Against Fundamentalisms Response to Haleh Afshar's article of the same name by Mandana Hendessi and Rouhi Shafii. http://www.gn.apc.org/waf/journal6p12.htm

WAF Articles Women and the politics of Fundamentalism in Iran Journal no.6 1995. pp12-15. A response to Haleh Afshar's article in WAF journal no 5 Mandana Hendessi and Rouhi Shafii FIFTEEN years of Islamic fundamentalist gov-ernment have taken a massive toll on women's politics in Iran. Secularist feminism has been suffocated within Iran's boundaries; its survival should be mainly attributed to the efforts of Iranian women's groups outside Iran. Women in Iran can raise their issues only by using the framework set by the fundamentalists - they can exercise no real con-trol over the agenda. Naturally, given this imposition, those who have some influence are women who are trusted by the regime as 'true believers' of funda-mentalism. Haleh Afshar's position on fundamentalist women should be placed in the context of a deepen-ing identity crisis which many Iranian secularist women living in the West face. It is part of a trend which is developing amongst some academic Iranian feminists in an attempt to respond to this crisis of identity. It was in 1985 in Nairobi, Kenya, in the women's decade conference held by the UN, that the power and appeal of fundamentalist Iranian women really sunk into our minds. it became clearly appar-ent there that larger numbers of Muslim third-world women were considering Islamic fundamentalism as a viable political option to combat western imperial-ism. A cross-section of third-world women, from Bolivia right across the globe to the Philippines, tend-ed to find the 'anti-imperialist' message of fundamen-talism more attractive - more tangible. They also con-sidered the struggle against imperialism as a priority overriding the importance of achieving gender equal-ity. Haleh Afshar is therefore quite right to claim the third-world popularity of the fundamentalist mes-sage.

Click here Women and Politics in Islam In the Name of God Most Gracious Most Merciful One of the major controversial issues in Religion of Islam for those who do not know the truth in the Quran is the woman's role in the political system or in leadership. Can a woman assume the leadership role? Is there a prohibition? The answer is clear in God's scripture - the Quran. If the source is man made books (Hadith written 200+ years after the revelation of the Quran) a view of subjugation of women and denial of rights in the political system emerges. God gives stories in the Quran to establish precedents and to provide us guidance and teachings. "We narrate to you the most accurate history through the revelation of this Quran. Before this, you were totally unaware." 12:3 "In their history, there is a lesson for those who possess intelligence......" 12:111 The role of woman in the history of the world is demonstrated in the story of Belquees, the Queen of Sheba. See 27:22-44. God gave us her history in the Quran, to set a precedent that a woman in a political leadership is not offensive to God.

"Any woman who would dare to do that needs to be supported and encouraged," said Linda Otway, who has been teaching courses on the role of women in aboriginal societies for nearly a decade.

120. Bargaining With Fundamentalism: Women And The Politics Of Population Control In Article by Homa Hoodfar from the Global Reproductive Health Forum. http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/rt21/globalism/hoodfar.html

Bargaining with Fundamentalism: Women and the Politics of Population Control in Iran Homa Hoodfar Given that controlling women and their bodies and reclaiming the family as a site of male power and dominance is a common thread found in all brands of fundamentalism, it is not surprising that feminists tend to be keen observers of fundamentalism's spread, their increasing ability to forge alliances with other right-wing forces, and even their ascendance to state power. In this context, the history of gender debates and the process of making and unmaking visions of womanhood carry special significance in the Islamic Republic of Iran, one of the first countries where fundamentalist movements have successfully ascended and monopolised state power in recent times. This is in marked contrast with the earlier position of many political leaders, who viewed politics as a male domain and domesticity and motherhood as the cornerstone of women's lives. Indeed, although Ayatollah Khomeini himself objected strenuously when women were given the right to vote in 1963, the regime declared participation in formal politics a religious duty for all, including women. Nonetheless, during the first decade of its rule, the regime continued to introduce laws and practices justified by their particular version of Islamic legal tradition, which makes the family the absolute kingdom of men, and in which the wife (or wives) and children (especially daughters) become disenfranchised subjects. Thus, to a considerable extent, the Islamic regime in Iran displays the patterns characteristic of fundamentalist world visions: that is, the regime represents the divine power that rules over men, and men in turn rule over the women in their families.
