Women's problems as a "women's only" problem?
debates on gender and democracy in Iran
Katajun Amirpur
pp. 281-289
In this article I will argue that in the last years the way of thinking about gender has undergone a change. I believe that in the Iranian public discourse, "the woman question" has come to be viewed as part of the question of democracy. This is a recent development; until very recently, women's legal discrimination was perceived in Iranian discourse as a "women's only" problem.
