Women and politics in Iran : veiling, unveiling, and reveiling by Hamideh Sedghi

"Using primary and secondary sources, Sedghi offers new knowledge on women's agency in relation to state power.

Sedghi links politics and culture with economics to present an integrated analysis of the private and public lives of different classes of women and their modes of resistance to state power." - Editorial Reviews
