Working Women in Jordan
Author: Fida J. Adely
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226833941
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
"Across the world as here in the US, education and economic opportunity often go hand in hand. But at the same time that education creates opportunities, it can introduce new hurdles for young adults beginning to build their lives. In Working Women in Jordan, anthropologist Fida J. Adely turns to college-educated women in Jordan who migrate from rural provinces to Amman for work. Building on twelve years of ethnographic research in Jordan and extensive interviews with dozens of women, as well as some of their family members, Adely analyzes the effects of developments such as expanded educational opportunities, urbanization, privatization, and the restructuring of the labor market on women's life trajectories, gender roles, the institution of marriage, and kinship relations. Through these diverse stories, Adely tracks meaningful changes in Jordanian society. Jordanian women rarely live apart from their families before marrying, except to attend university; this increase in female mobility, with the support and sometimes encouragement of families, is indicative of significant shifts in gendered expectations. The women Adely profiles are not always motivated to migrate for entirely economic reasons, but also family and personal aspirations, recent family and personal histories, and perceived marriage opportunities. These motivations often come into conflict with one another, however--for example when a family's expectations for financial help compete with personal desires for a more affluent lifestyle. Drawing on the experiences of these young women, as well as extensive analysis of broader socio-economic and demographic shifts, Adely shows how educational structures can act as both facilitators and obstacles to labor force entry. Working Women in Jordan will require us to think more critically about what counts as development, and for whom"--
