Abstract<\/h3>\n

In Politics of Piety: The Islamic Revival and the Feminist Subject<\/em>, Saba Mahmood provides an ethnographic account of the Women\u2019s Mosque Movement in Cairo, Egypt: a movement which, Mahmood notes, makes Western feminists uncomfortable. This paper seeks to identify the origins of that discomfort by providing a historical analysis of the dove-tailing imperatives of the neo-imperial state and the politically prescriptive project of secular-liberal feminism. Aided by the theories of Jacqui Alexander, Leila Ahmed, and Lila Abu-Lughod, I advocate for a radical transformation of the supposed analytical certainties of secular-liberal feminism through a transnational feminist reading of the piety movement.<\/p>\n
