Sex, Law, and Sovereignty in French Algeria, 1830–1930: Corpus Juris: The Humanities in Politics and Law
Autor Judith Surkisen Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 dec 2019
Surkis argues that powerful affective attachments to the intimate life of the family and fantasies about Algerian women and the sexual prerogatives of Muslim men, supposedly codified in the practices of polygamy and child marriage, shaped French theories and regulatory practices of Muslim law in fundamental and lasting ways. Women's legal status in particular came to represent the dense relationship between sex and sovereignty in the colony. This book also highlights the ways in which Algerians interacted with and responded to colonial law. Ultimately, this sweeping legal genealogy of French Algeria elucidates how "the Muslim question" in France became--and remains--a question of sex.
