ABOUT H-GENDER-MIDEAST

The H-GENDER-MIDEAST network seeks to establish an active dialogue on issues
of gender in the Arabic speaking Middle East, Turkey, the Caucasus, Central
Asia, Western Asia, the Mediterranean and sub-Saharan Africa.  Its aim is to
structure a network in tune with shifting articulations of geographical
connections. The network furthermore intends to bring together
gender-focused issues from within a wide range of interdisciplinary positions.

H-GENDER-MIDEAST is co-edited by Martina Rieker mrieker@aucegypt.edu and

Cynthia Nelson cynthia@aucegypt.edu. It is advised by a board of scholars.

Like all H-Net lists, H-GENDER-MIDEAST is moderated to edit out material
that, in the editors' opinion, is not germane to the list, involves
technical matters (such as subscription management requests), is
inflammatory, or violates evolving, yet common, standards of Internet
etiquette. H-Net's procedure for resolving disputes over list editorial
practices is Article II, Section 2.20 of our bylaws, located at:
