André Pizetta Altoé

Abstrak

The article aims at analyzing gender relations in a Muslim society such as Afghanistan in view of the book The Bookseller of Cabul.  The theoretical framework is based on the concept of gender, the concept of citizenship proposed by Marshall, and the definition of symbolic violence given by the French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu. Finding show that in strongly patriarchal cultures, women lack basic citizenship rights - civil rights in particular, becoming symbolic goods available for purchase.
