The Islamic Veil Books by Elizabeth Bucar | Women, Faith & Identity
Explore one of the most debated symbols of modern times—the Islamic veil. This thought-provoking book by scholar Elizabeth Bucar dives deep into the political, cultural, and personal meanings behind veiling around the world.
Banned in some countries, mandatory in others, the veil has sparked global conversations on women’s rights, identity, multiculturalism, and freedom. Bucar moves beyond clichés to illuminate real women’s experiences in countries like Egypt, Iran, Turkey, Indonesia, and beyond.
A vital read for anyone interested in religion, gender, global culture, and contemporary politics.
