Abstract: Brief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
In this study Safia Haddad examines the role of women in
the assimilation.of Syrian-Americans in Chicago. According to Haddad, assimilation is
dependent on a family's economic success and domestic prosperity, which is dependent in
turn on the contributions of female family members towards this goal. By helping out in the
family business, or earning additional income outside the family, in addition to carrying
out domestic work, women ensured their family's success and prosperity. Furthermore they
earned increased respect by husbands which improved their position in the community. Women
played a public role in the community and formed their own clubs for charitable
purposes.
