She challenges the prevailing common sense associated with calls for women’s and girls’ education and argues that such advocacy is not simply about access to education but, more crucially, concerned with producing ideal Muslim woman-\/girl-subjects with specific relationships to the patriarchal family, paid work, Islam, and the nation-state. Thus, discourses on girls’\/ women’s education are sites for the construction of not only gender but also class relations, religion, and the nation.\u003cbr\u003e  ","brand":"Shenila Khoja-Moolji","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48199584153851,"sku":"9780520970533","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_9ce02490-deb8-4c38-a1c8-2d8ee2fe89fa.jpg?v=1770685595","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/forging-the-ideal-educated-girl-9780520970533","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
