Description
Abstract Kuwaiti women's long struggle for a seat in the National Assembly culminated with remarkable success on May 16, 2009. For the very first time in Kuwait's political history, the women's movement managed to send four female representatives to the National Assembly. Their electoral success ushers a new phase in Kuwait's political process in which women finally become active participants. The goal of this article is to examine women's struggle for political rights, their electoral success, their role in current Kuwaiti politics, their accomplishments, and their future in politics in Kuwait.
