ABSTRACT BETWEEN DAYA AND DOCTOR; A HISTORY OF THE IMPACT OF MODERN NATION-STATE BUILDING ON HEALTH EAST AND WEST OF THE JORDAN RIVER SEPTEMBER 1997 DR. ELISE G. YOUNG, B.A. SARAH LAWRENCE COLLEGE M.A. COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY Ph.D., UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS AMHERST Directed by Professor Yvonne Y. Haddad This dissertation is a historical analysis of politics of state building and health in Palestine and in Jordan. The study contributes to contextual studies of constructions of gender and health as a central aspect of modern nation-state building in the twentieth century. Processes of modern state building in the region of Bilad al Sham brought about significant transformations in definitions of health, development of health care systems, and medical practices. The study examines three aspects of these changes. First is a gender analysis of ways in which science and medicine contributed to colonialist processes of state building. Second is an exploration of particular effects of war, displacement and expulsion, and changing socioeconomic political conditions, on Palestinian women's health. V , . Third, the study looks at the significance for Palestinian women healers, midwives, and others, of changes introduced in the health system by the British in Palestine and in Transjordan and by UNRWA in refugee camps in Jordan. A study of women and health requires a shift in dominant historiographical approaches. This dissertation develops an analytic framework that takes as its starting point questions raised by feminist epistemology . In the period addressed, the struggle for control of health systems is also a struggle for control of knowledge making , Aspects of thi s struggle disadvantage and inval idate knowledge bases of women healers. A central question of the study is: how do specific Palestinian refugee women construct meaning and authorize knowledge? This dissertation examines the particular relationship of Palestinian women to historical processes of war , ci t i zenship in the modern nation- state refugee status , rel ief efforts , and development processes In addition to archival research, findings are based on oral histories with Palestinian women refugees in Jordan in order to understand how they interpret history and construct health. Findings show that Palestinian women represented in this study construct health as a socio-political phenomenon, rather than in purely biological terms, and that health is a metaphor for homecoming. vi Health concerns are central to Palestinian women's resistance: nationalist struggle is a historical reality informing their struggle for self definition, a struggle central to defining health. Oral histories represented in this study clarify the need to address Palestinian women's health in the context of gender, race, class politics dominating the region. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS iv ABSTRACT V Chapter 1 .

CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Traveling from Amman to Ajloun and north into the mountains at the start of the Eid, March 2, 1995, I was treated to a blaze of color. The mountainside was covered with red poppies as far as the eye could see. The air was sweet smelling, the sun high; a perfect day for hiking and picnicking away from the fumes and chaos of city traffic. I had been in Jordan for a month; this was my first trip outside of the capital. Three days later I lay on a stretcher at Palestine Hospital, feverish, and barely able to walk. I had succumbed to a respiratory infection that regularly plagues Amman's inhabitants. I was expecting this, given the stress of international travel , new living conditions, new foods Furthermore, I had been warned that such infections result from constant exposure to dust from the stone buildings typical of this region. 1 had arrived in Jordan prepared with a suitcase of Chinese herbs and homeopathic remedies, but that day I was grateful for the instant relief of antibiotics imported from France. Several nights later, one of my Jordanian friends arrived at my room with an herb her grandmother used for again. curing respiratory conditions. When I was on my feet • . 2 my Arabic instructor treated me to thyme she kept in her freezer. All of the women I met here used plant cures regularly, along with, if they had health insurance or the money to pay for them, allopathic medicines such as antibiotics, either from private doctors, or dispensed through cl inics But, as 1 would later discover, use of plant cures in Jordan is not without complex dimensions . For example , the state discourages use of herbs in refugee camps. In the twentieth century, changes in medical practices accompanying colonialism and nation-state building had an impact on both the availability of herbal medicines and on the population's use of age old heal ing methods This study is an historical analysis of pol itics of state building and health in Palestine and in Jordan. Processes of modern state building in the region of Bilad al-Sham (in Arabic, land of the sun, referring to the region transformations of Greater Syria ) brought about signi f icant in definitions of health, development of health care systems, and medical practices. I examine three aspects of these changes in the course of this study. First is a gender analysis of ways in which science and medicine in the twentieth century contribute to colonialist processes of state building in the regions addressed. Second, I discuss specific conseguences of state building in the region, through military occupation, war, displacement and , 3 expulsion, changing socio-economic-political conditions, and changing mores, on women's health.

    MAKING COMMON CAUSE?: WESTERN AND MIDDLE EASTERN FEMINISTS IN THE INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S MOVEMENT, 1911-1948 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Charlotte E. Weber, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Leila J. Rupp, Adviser Professor Susan M. Hartmann _________________________ Adviser Professor Ellen Fleischmann Department of History ABSTRACT This dissertation exposes important junctures between feminism, imperialism, and orientalism by investigating the encounter between Western and Middle Eastern feminists in the first-wave international women’s movement. I focus primarily on the International Alliance of Women for Suffrage and Equal Citizenship, and to a lesser extent, the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom. By examining the interaction and exchanges among Western and Middle Eastern women (at conferences and through international visits, newsletters and other correspondence), as well as their representations of “East” and “West,” this study reveals the conditions of and constraints on the potential for feminist solidarity across national, cultural, and religious boundaries. In addition to challenging the notion that feminism in the Middle East was “imposed” from outside, it also complicates conventional wisdom about the failure of the first-wave international women’s movement to accommodate difference. Influenced by growing ethos of cultural internationalism

ITTLE explanation is required of the arrangement followed in this Volume, beyond calling L attention to the division of this Volume into two parts: the first forms a combined Index to the three Volumes of the Memoirs, the Special Papers, the Jerusalem Volume, the Flora and Fauna of Palestine, and the Geological Survey; and the second is an Index to the Arabic and English Name Lists. This division was considered advisable in order to avoid the continual use of reference letters to the Name Lists, which would otherwise have been required. The large number of entries rendered it absolutely necessary to make them as brief as possible; but it is hoped that it will be found that perspicuity has not been sacrificed to brevity. A full explanation of the reference letters used will be found on the first page. The short Hebrew Index at the end of the Volume has been kindly furnished by Dr. W. Aldis Wright. H. C. S.
