330 .. $a In 2005 the World Bank released a gender assessment of the nation of Jordan, a country
that, like many in the Middle East, has undergone dramatic social and gender transformations,
in part by encouraging equal access to education for men and women. The resulting
demographic picture there--highly educated women who still largely stay at home as
mothers and caregivers-- prompted the World Bank to label Jordan a "(Bgender paradox."
In Gendered Paradoxes, Fida J. Adely shows that assessment to be a fallacy, taking
readers into the rarely seen halls of a Jordanian public school--the al-Khatwa High
School for Girls--and revealing the dynamic lives of its students, for whom such trends
are far from paradoxical. Through the lives of these students, Adely explores the
critical issues young people in Jordan grapple with today: nationalism and national
identity, faith and the requisites of pious living, appropriate and respectable gender
roles, and progress. In the process she shows the important place of education in
Jordan, one less tied to the economic ends of labor and employment that are so emphasized
by the rest of the developed world. In showcasing alternative values and the highly
capable young women who hold them, Adely raises fundamental questions about what constitutes
development, progress, and empowerment--not just for Jordanians, but for the whole
world
