COMMENTS FROM AN AUTHOR: ENGAGING THE ARAB HUMAN DEVELOPMENT REPORT 2005 ON WOMEN
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2009
Extract
I think it is safe to say that the Arab Human Development Report 2005 (AHDR 2005) was the first report to be criticized and even attacked by its own authors. Some contested not being “fully” the “owner” of the report because they were forced to share it with some “disappointing” partners; some attacked it for not fully representing their fundamentalist secular beliefs. Others showed their discontent with its theoretical incoherence and its clear neoliberal approach. These differing stands reflect the spectrum of conflicting views and approaches in the Arab world about women's issues; they also reflect the lack of a spirit of teamwork.
