Gender politics is the most visible marker of conflict over identity within the Middle East, and it also lies at the core of cultural conflicts in the relationship between the Muslim world and the 'West'. This publication deals with the main question: Why is gender such a divisive issue between the West and the Middle East? To answer this question, the author develops a theoretical framework and discusses four case studies.
