Özet, vb.
"Based on original interviews of twenty-two Muslim American women of South Asian descent on the topics of honor and honor killings, this book examines honor and culture and intersections with power, tradition, gender, family, and religion. Additionally, it incorporates an autoethnographic approach describing the authors journey to Pakistan to create a personal narrative throughout. This volume offers a unique perspective that allows for informed exploration and description of Muslim American womens attitudes and beliefs surrounding the practice of killing women and girls in order to regain family honor."--Provided by publisher.
