H-GENDER-MIDEAST

The Journal of Middle East Women's Studies is pleased to announce the
winning paper in its 2009 Graduate Student Essay Competition:

"Young Women as Activists in Contemporary Egypt: Anxiety, Leadership,
and the Next Generation," by Sunny Daly of New York and the Institute
for Gender and Women's Studies, American University in Cairo.

We are very pleased to have received 40 entries from students far and
wide, not only at schools in the US, such as the Universities of
Arizona, Connecticut, Illinois, Maryland, Texas, Toronto, and Utah;
Baylor, Boston, Columbia, Drew, Georgetown, Harvard, Indiana, New
York, Northwestern, and Seton Hall Universities; Bard College and San
Diego State University; but also from the American University in
Cairo, Izmir University, the National Academy of Sciences in the
Republic of Armenia, Radboud University in the Netherlands, Sant’Anna
School of Advanced Studies in Italy, and the Universities of Edinburgh
and Leeds. We thank all who took part in the competition.

JMEWS enters on its sixth year of publication in 2010, and with so
many young scholars active in research and writing, all of those
working to produce the journal, including the editors and the
editorial advisors, the editorial board and the staff, the Association
for Middle East Women's Studies (AMEWS) and its membership and board,
as well as the student authors and their faculty mentors, can be
confident in the ever-growing strength and fruitfulness of our field.

JMEWS is supported by its subscribers, and a subscription to the
journal is a benefit of membership in AMEWS. Membership and non-
membership subscriptions are available at http://inscribe.iupress.org/loi/mew
