About
I am a sociologist whose research examines the intersections of family, gender, ethnicity, and structural inequality in contexts of rapid social transformation. My work focuses on Palestinian Arab society in Israel, a setting marked by deep-seated gender norms and ethnic marginalization that simultaneously constrain and reshape women?s lives. Through an intersectional and mixed-methods approach, I explore how family structures, education, and labor-market participation interact with cultural expectations and structural marginalities to shape women?s social and economic positioning. My research bridges micro-level analyses of family and gender relations with broader questions of social change, inequality, and agency in an ethnically stratified context.The University bears no responsibility for the content displayed on this page or on any other faculty members’ pages.
