  • Women and the New International Economic Order by Karima Korayem

    Women and the New International Economic Order

    Karima Korayem

    The objective of this paper is to examine the impact of the New International Economic Order (NIEO) on women in the Arab World. We shall discuss this impact in two steps: First, the implications of the NIEO for the economies of the Arab countries. Second, and on the basis of that, the impact of the NIEO on the educational and employment profiles of Arab women. However, to find out what effect the NIEO will have on the educational and employment profiles of Arab women, one should first get acquainted with these profiles as they stand. Therefore, the paper will be divided into three parts besides the Introduction, which constitues part one. The second part includes the main implications of the NIEO at the national level in the Arab World. The third part discusses the educational and employment profiles of Arab women. The fourth part examines the impact of the NIEO on Arab women.

  • Women and work in Egypt by Earl L. Sullivan

    Women and work in Egypt

    Earl L. Sullivan

    This brief study of the role of women in the labor force of Egypt has occupied my time and attention, off and on, for about two years. While I alone am responsible for the final result, a number of people have helped reduce its deficiencies in one way or another and I owe each of them a special debt. Matilda Toma and Nadia Hanna each typed parts of the paper and Edith Dimond prepared the final manuscript for publication. Adel Labban helped in some of the early stages of data collection and Soha Abdel Kadar, Raymond Baker, Kareen Aboul Kheir and Barbara Ibrahim commented on an earlier version. Their observations were especially helpful, as were those of Nadia Abdel Naby. Nelly Effat and Amany El Khateeb who helped correct some of my misperceptions about the contemporary role of women in Egypt. But one individual served as my reseach assistant as I was finishing this paper and without her help I doubt it would have been completed. Maha Ghalwash was an indefatigable data gatherer and critic who helped improve the quality of this paper in a number of ways. Convention dictates that an author accept all responsibility for whatever inadequacies remain in a publication, while granting full credict to those whose criticism and assistance were helpful. Who am I to flaunt convention? Obviously, a foreign man writing a study of Egyptian women needs all the help he can get. In addition to those individuals mentioned above, I should like to thank the Editorial Board of Cairo Papers, numerous colleagues and students, and finally, the women (and men) of Egypt who made me believe that such research was worth doing.
