| Title Proper | Jewish Women and the Making of the Levant Fair in the Interwar Era |
| Language | ENG |
| Author | Gökatalay, Semih |
| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This study investigates the contribution of Jewish women to the Levant Fair during the interwar period. In its time, the Fair became one of the major outlets that permitted Jewish women to contribute to nation-building in the pre-state period, mainly due to a dearth of otherwise suitable opportunities for women. Women participation, however, neither transformed power relations between men and women, nor expanded economic and social rights available to women at the time. |
