The Politics of the Veil
Many of us are well aware of the obsession of the Islamic
conservatives with the veil. Some of us may perceive it as
a sign of backwardness, or of blind religiosity, but we
cannot deny that in the past few decades, few symbols have
engendered as much emotion as the veil. In this talk, Dr.
Bahar Davary will discuss the complexity of the matter and
the meaning of the veil as a religious symbol and its
connection with the notion of identity.
