  Islamism and Family Law Reform in Morocco and Jordan
 
 
Title: Islamism and Family Law Reform in Morocco and Jordan
Author: Clark, Janine A.
Young, Amy E.
Appeared in: Mediterranean politics
Paging: Volume 13 (2008) nr. 3 pages 333-352
Year: 2008-11
Contents: This article questions why Islamists approved family law reform in Morocco and not in Jordan. The answer entails three inter-related factors: the different relationships Islamists had with their respective monarchs; the strength of leftist parties and their ties to civil society; and how the respective reforms were presented by the two monarchs. This article contributes to a body of literature that argues, while not discounting ideology, that an understanding of Islamist parties requires an examination of the larger political context and Islamist responses to it.
