Argues that the discursive erasure of Muslim women within colonial and Hindu nationalist discourse underpinned the construction of other identity categories in late colonial Bengal and remains linked to violence against Indian Muslim women today.

"Since 1989, religious fundamentalism and exclusionary nationalism in Indian administered Jammu and Kashmir have generated political and social turmoil that has eroded the cultural syncretism that has long been part of the ethos and history of Kashmir. These forces are responsible for the silencing of dissenters, economic deprivation, lack of infrastructure, mass displacements, political anarchy, and repression of women. Historical Kashmiri culture inscribes a wide range of experiences, which centralizing institutions attempt to render invisible and homogeneous. Women in Kashmir, as in other postcolonial countries, are positioned in relation to their own class and cultural realities, their own histories, their sensitivity to the diversity of cultural traditions and to the questions and conflicts within them. They constantly grapple with the legacies of Sufi Islam, their own struggles not just with the devastating effects of Indian occupation and Pakistani infiltration, but also with the discourses of cultural nationalism and religious fundamentalism propagated in the valley. I position myself with reference to the West as well as with communities outside the West, so I speak with a complex awareness of and investment in representation.I analyze the ways in which experiences have been constructed historically and have changed over time. The refusal to wallow in grief and a desire to deconstruct the Camelot-like atmosphere of that period impelled me to undertake this cross-disciplinary project regarding the political history, composite culture, literature of the state; the attempted relegation of Kashmiri women to the archives of memory, and their persistent endeavors to rise from the ashes of immolated identities.

"Since 1989, religious fundamentalism and exclusionary nationalism in Indian administered Jammu and Kashmir have generated political and social turmoil that has eroded the ethos and fabric of Kashmiri culture. These forces are responsible for the silencing of dissenters, economic deprivation, lack of infrastructure, mass displacements, political anarchy, and repression of women. This book seeks to analyze the effects of nationalist, militant, and religious discourses and praxes on a gender-based hierarchy"--Provided by publisher.

Le port du voile est-il une pratique nécessaire de la religion musulmane, relevant de la loi et dune conviction fondée, ou est-il simplement dérivé de coutumes régionales ou ancestrales ? Peut-on en réglementer le port dans le respect des libertés garanties par les textes fondateurs du droit occidental ? De nombreux auteurs musulmans, hommes et femmes, ont développé des analyses pertinentes, sans effet sur un débat inter-musulman qui fait défaut. Les leaders d'opinion du inonde non-musulman sont donc pris de court pour porter un jugement informé. Cet ouvrage veut contribuer à combler ce vide. Ecrit par un non-musulman, il synthétise les recherches des nouveaux penseurs de l'Islam" qui retrouvent dans l'Islam des graines de liberté, d'égalité et de respect mutuel entre hommes et femmes. Le voile en tant qu'obligation religieuse y perd son fondement. Il paraît alors utile de comparer comment signes ostentatoires et manifestation des convictions religieuses sont accueillis et réglementés dans trois ensembles francophones, la France, la Belgique et le Québec. Que peut-on, que doit-on "accommoder raisonnablement" ? Finalement, le féminisme musulman qui connait un nouvel essor sera-t-il la voie de sortie de crise de l'Islam clans la société occidentale ?

Women, the Recited Qur'an, and Islamic Music in Contemporary Indonesia takes readers to the heart of religious musical praxis in Indonesia, home to the largest Muslim population in the world. Anne K. Rasmussen explores a rich public soundscape, where women recite the divine texts of the Qur'an, and where an extraordinary diversity of Arab-influenced Islamic musical styles and genres, also performed by women, flourishes. Based on unique and revealing ethnographic research beginning at the end of Suharto's "New Order" and continuing into the era of "Reformation," the book considers the powerful role of music in the expression of religious nationalism. In particular, it focuses on musical style, women's roles, and the ideological and aesthetic issues raised by the Indonesian style of recitation.
