Contemporary Muslim Ethics of Abortion
Clan Governance and State Stability: The Relationship between Female Subordination and Political Order
We propose that the relative influence of clans is an important explanatory factor producing significant variation in state stability and security across societies. We explore the micro-level processes that link clan predominance with dysfunctional syndromes of state behavior. Clans typically privilege agnatic descent from the patriline and are characterized by extreme subordination of women effected through marriage practices. Particular types o…

What Is the Relationship between Inequity in Family Law and Violence against Women? Approaching the Issue of Legal Enclaves
Family law” is the term applied to the legal regulation of marriage and parenthood within a society, and may serve to express a society's accepted ideals concerning male–female relations. Adopting a feminist evolutionary analytic (FEA) approach, we hypothesize that nation-states with higher degrees of inequity in family law favoring men, codifying an evolutionary legacy of male dominance and control over female reproduction, will experience highe…
Globalisation, mobile phones and forbidden romance in Morocco
Globalisation in the form of must-have mobile phones affects gender and generational relations in the Middle East and North Africa. As this new form of communication technology spreads to secondary and university students, it impacts the traditionally strong institution of the Middle Eastern family. In Morocco, gender relations and generational dynamics are changing as this technology breaks down traditional spatial and associational boundaries b…
Changing contraceptive mores in Morocco: Population Data, Trends, Gossip and Rumours

Data compiled in 1993 show that 41.5 per cent of women (54.4 per cent in urban areas) use some type of contraception to prevent birth. To determine the impact of increased contraceptive use I utilise the latest demographic findings, interviews with Moroccan health officials, scholars, opinion‐make…
Abortion, Islam, and the 1994 Cairo Population Conference
The International Conference on Population and Development held in Cairo in September 1994 focused world attention on the interplay of religion, family-planning methods, and women's status. The most hotly debated topic of the conference was abortion. Before the conference convened, newspapers in the West and in the Middle East reported “a growing religious furor” that spurred an alliance between Muslim nations and the Vatican based on a common be…
