A few days ago the deadline for submissions for the edited volume Muslim Women Digital Geographies closed. At the moment the number of chapters stands at 23, grouped into six provisional sections: 'Political Activism', 'Art', 'Education', 'Identity', 'Converts' and 'Resistance and Negotiation'. Geographically speaking, the geographical areas discussed by the contributors include Australia, Brazil, Egypt, Greece, Indonesia, Morocco, Pakistan, Poland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, the UK and the US. It is doubtlessly an advantage of this book that it will shed some light on the Muslim presence in countries where it has largely passed unnoticed.
The volume is hopefully going to be published by Brill (Women and Gender: The Middle East and the Islamic World series), who are interested in the project and providing editorial support.
