Empirical Research Proposal Regarding the Oppression of Women in
Islamic States
[ send me this paper ]
This 12 page report discusses whether or not the
oppression of women in Islamic states is based in the religious
theology of Islam or in the cultural contexts of individual
nations. Many believe that the Quran (Koran) teachings and male
dominance have caused this situation when the actual problem has
been more directly related to the interpretation of holy
scripture by men. It is the fundamentalist extremists who should
take the blame for distorting the teachings of Islam. This paper
is written in ways that lend themselves to the actual development
of a larger research project. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Ethiopian Women: The Adverse Impacts of Culture and Economics
[ send me this paper ]
A 15 page discussion of the many hardships faced by Ethiopian women as a result of their culture and the harsh economic realities of life in Ethiopia. Not only are these women oppressed by the lack of livable wage work in their home regions, they often live in abusive homes and even when they escape those homes they find little viable employment in the cities. Many women, in fact, are forced into the industry of prostitution. This paper explores the options available to Ethiopia’s women and suggests that the recent advent of women’s groups is a step in the right direction but that in order to changed the lives of these women we must address both Ethiopian culture and entrepreneurial options. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Female Circumcision Among the Olinkans
[ send me this paper ]
A 14 page research paper that is based on the premise that the author is a nurse who is spending a year as a health practitioner to the Olinkan tribe. The author must state a position relative to the subject of female circumcision, a practice of the Olinkans. The writer gives both sides of this issue, but comes down unequivocally against female circumcision, or as it is more accurately called, female genital mutilation. In making this argument, the writer uses 'Tashi' from Alice Walker's 'Possessing the Secret of Joy' as a case study. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Feminism And Madame de Stael
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. It is quite appropriate to speak of the connection between Madame de Stael and the notion of feminism in nineteenth-century French literature. Indeed, one of the most powerful books on feminist conjecture is that of Corinne, a story Madame de Stael wrote about an aristocratic heroine who is in constant clash with the society around her. This approach to female strength was not a course many writers braved during this time; rather, to put forth the struggles inherent to gender issues was a bold statement about the patriarchal influence of the period. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Feminist Anthropology and Postmodern Criticism
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page discussion of feminist anthropology, the approach to anthropology which entails an intent to overcome the traditional male-dominate biases which have previously existed in the field. Presents the work of Sherry B. Ortner as well as numerous other authors to illustrate the premises of feminist anthropology. Points out that even this approach is not without its critics. Cautions that while some in anthropology today seek to take the discipline one more step, to use it as a tool for exposing the factors which result in the world's inequalities, particularly the inequalities between men and women and overcoming those factors, that approach is a distraction and indeed a threat to the traditional intent of the discipline. Concludes that the anthropologist is to observe and record, not to interfere in matters which were in existence long prior to our arrival on the scene. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
