{"product_id":"women-education-and-socialization-in-mirna-lattouf-9780761830177","title":"Women, Education, and Socialization in Modern Lebanon: 19th and 20th Centuries Social History","description":"Much has been theorized about the positive correlation between formal education and the change in women's social and legal status. In 2000, however, a United Nations report on gender discrimination indicated that bias was overwhelmingly due to socialization, or informal learning, as expressed through cultural values, norms, and traditions. Governments investigated in the UN report cited cultural relativity, such as harmful laws and customs, as a major element of concern. In a study on women and higher education in modern Lebanon one finds the Lebanese case mimics international trends in the unwillingness to confront and reinterpret strict and rigid ideologies, which limit the transformation of female educational progress into change in women's societal roles. \u003ci\u003eWomen, Education, and Socialization in Modern Lebanon\u003c\/i\u003e provides a historical background for these socio\/political influences on the Lebanese educational system.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mirna Lattouf\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0761830170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780761830177\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University Press of America\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/13\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 198\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.67h x 6.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Mirna Lattouf","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48991992676607,"sku":"9780761830177","price":67.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/women-education-and-socialization-in-mirna-lattouf-9780761830177","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
