About this book

Nael Georges offers a detailed legal critique of the legislative and political systems that shape the lives of Christian women across the Arab Mashreq. Comparing several countries with international human-rights instruments, the study examines discrimination based on both sex and religion in inheritance, child custody, nationality and guardianship. It traces the interaction of Christian and Islamic legal frameworks and provides a rigorous regional account of rights violations that are often treated separately or left outside mainstream debate.
