      abstract = {Most scholarship on the nineteenth and early twentieth  century Constitutional Revolution in Iran has focused on  the role of two groups, intellectuals and the clergy. The  role of women has largely been ignored, despite their  widespread participation in the Revolution, and existing  research on women has mainly focused on their achievements  in the realm of women’s rights, which means that other  aspects of women’s activism remain un-investigated. The aim  of this book is twofold: first, it presents one of the very  first studies of women’s resistance strategies and their  resistance to consumerism in Iran; second, and in relation  to the first objective, it attempts to demonstrate the  biased nature of knowledge production in the studies of  women in past societies, particularly the role of women in  economics. This book therefore explores the public role of  women and their efforts to revive Iran’s economy during and  after the Constitutional Revolution.
