Arab Publics Continue to See Women as Second-Class Citizens

Research output: Non-textual form › Website, Blog, Social Media

Abstract

During the Arab Uprisings in 2011 women as well as men engaged in political activism, on the streets and virtually. Some thought that after the Uprisings the Arab public would be more willing to accept the rights of women. However, this seems to have been a forlorn hope.

Focusing on North Africa, Jordan, and Iraq, the project combines a cross-national public opinion survey carried out in 2014-15 with microdata, indices, and other survey data to analyse trajectories of political, social, and economic transformations before and after the 2010-2011 Arab Uprisings. Andrea has published extensively on Egypt, the Arab Uprisings, and European governments' responses. He has also appeared on national and international media, including the BBC, France24, CBC, SBS, Al-Jazeera, Deutsche Welle, RAI and several other outlets.
