Synopsis
Long before the Bush Administration took notice of the Taliban's brutal treatment of Afghan women, feminist activists and scholars were sounding an alarm about the rise of religious fundamentalism throughout the world and its deadly consequences for women. Yet women's voices have been conspicuously absent from the debate over the new war on terror. Nothing Sacred breaks this silence, drawing together an array of feminist responses to religious fundamentalism -- before and after September 11. How is fundamentalism linked to discrimination and violence against women in such countries as Algeria, Iran, Israel, India and America? Is there a "clash of civilizations" between Islam and the West, or is it more accurate to say there are clashes within civilizations, such as the longstanding struggle between feminists and Christian fundamentalists in the United States? How can fundamentalist movements be defused and women's human rights protected? In Nothing Sacred, these and other urgent questions are addressed by leading feminist authors and activists including Leila Ahmed, Karen Armstrong, Charlotte Bunch, Barbara Ehrenreich, Eve Ensler, Fatima Mernissi, Martha Nussbaum, Arundhati Roy, and Ellen Willis. Book jacket., Long before the Bush administration had heard of the Taliban and their scorched earth policy toward women, feminists were alert to the threat to women's freedom posed by religious fundamentalism, in Afghanistan and throughout the world. Nothing Sacred is a unique collection of feminist writings from America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia on religious fundamentalism and women's oppression--before and after September 11. Is secularism a necessary condition for women's liberation? How has religious fundamentalism contributed to discrimination--and violence--against women, both in Muslim countries and the West? Contributors reflect on the rise and fall of the Taliban and the contentious debate among feminists about the U.S.-led war on terrorism. Nothing Sacred also confronts and challenges the simplistic "clash-of-civilizations" thesis advanced by Samuel Huntington and his disciples, developing a more nuanced and compelling analysis of the culture war that continues to pit religious conservatives against advocates of women's empowerment and human rights not only in Afghanistan but everywhere. The volume includes a variety of perspectives and views, and ultimately advances a new, internationalist feminism. Contributors include Arundhati Roy, Barbara Ehrenreich, Karen Armstrong, Gloria Steinem, Eve Ensler, Susan Sontag, Ellen Willis, and Laura Flanders.
