Summary / Abstract (Note) | When the newly elected Afghan president, Ashraf Ghani, used his inaugural speech to thank his wife, Rula, for her support during the campaign, his words were greeted abroad as a revolution in the visibility of women in public life. In fact, Afghanistan has an almost century-old tradition of women’s empowerment, though that history may not make life easier for Rula Ghani. |
