description: In order to explore the contested life-worlds created by Westernizing gender roles, religious pluralism, and cultural hybridization, Dietz (anthropology) and El-Shohoumi (intercultural studies, both U. of Granada, Spain) undertake an ethnographic study of the life-worlds, biographical narratives, and organizational accounts of Muslim women in southern Spain. They present their findings under such headings as migration and Islam in Spain, niches and segments of labor market integration, and societal responses and perspectives. They have not indexed their study. Published by the Center for Comparative Immigration Studies at the U. of California, San Diego; distributed in the US by Lynne Rienner Publishers.
