Abstract:

AbstractThis article calls for a critical scholarly engagement with women's participation in the Kurdish movement. Since the 1980s, women have appropriated the political sphere in different gender roles, and their activism is mostly seen as a way of empowerment and emancipation. Albeit legitimate, such a claim often fails to account for the social and political control mechanisms inherent in the new political gender roles. This article presents the life stories of four Kurdish women. Although politically active, these women do not necessarily define themselves through their political activity.

Abstract:

AbstractThe Anglo-Irish War of 1919–21 spurred organized political activity among women in Britain, including former suffragists who campaigned against coercion in Ireland and members of the Irish minority in Britain who supported more radical republican efforts to achieve Irish independence. Their efforts are particularly significant because they occurred immediately after the granting of partial suffrage to women in 1918. This article argues that the advent of female suffrage changed the landscape of women's political mobilization in distinct ways that were made visible by advocacy on Irelan

AbstractIran and Turkey, one an Islamic, the other a secular republic, are the more successful loci of women's participation in public life, both politically and economically, than are a number of other states whose population is largely Muslim.

Historical examination of the cases of Turkey and Iran suggests that while the mobilization of women into political activity is crucial, it need not result in similar legal changes.

Conceptions of citizenship which rest on an abstract and universal notion of the individual founder on their inability to recognize the political relevance of gender. Such conceptions, because their ‘gender-neutrality’ has the effect of excluding women, are not helpful to the project of promoting the full citizenship of women. The question of citizenship is often reduced to either political citizenship, in terms of an instrumental notion of political participation, or social citizenship, in terms of an instrumental notion of economic (in)dependence.

Throughout history, there have been periods in which education was restricted to women. This was seen through the generalization of public instruction (Moyano Law, 1857), when it began to require more women to educate their own sex. One of the significant effect it has was that education became a form of integration of women in the economic sphere and, therefore, outside the borders of reproductive life. It became one of the main career opportunities for women, who until then had been excluded from the professional world, becoming “their first massive professional occupation” (San Román, 1997)

But it also arises ‘from below’ as a result of the activity of individuals and Haredi groups—both Ashkenazi and Mizrahi—leading to the imposition of increasingly stringent modesty demands on Jewish Israeli women.

Abstract:

The paper deals with a controversial question concerning the character of the sacral role of the royal women in the context of the concept of divine queenship. As the queenship is seen in modern Egyptology as an essential constitutive element of the ideology of kingship, the sacral role of the royal women is frequently determined as similar or even parallel to that of the king. In particular, the sacral scenes with the images of the royal women performing the rites in pair with a king or alone are sometimes considered as an illustration to this interpretation.

Abstract:

Background and aim: Individual differences in the pharmacological responsiveness to aspirin are considerable. A higher likelihood of ischemic episodes is linked to aspirin's inadequate antiplatelet actions. It has been hypothesized that chronic kidney disease (CKD) influences the pharmacologic reaction to antiplatelet drugs. The elevated chance of fatality and cardiovascular problems in CKD sufferers has already been found to be largely explained by high on-treatment platelets response (HTPR) to clopidogrel. This research aimed to examine at how aspirin affects blood clotting in CKD sufferers.

This study aims to prove the economic value of North Korean women's health capital and provide implications for economic growth through review of existing studies and empirical analysis from the perspective of human capital theory, focusing on
