Three aspects of Jordanian society on the East Bank of the River Jordan are examined: demographics, employment, & education. Migration & high birthrates have combined to double the population in the past 20 years. Over 50% of the population is under age 15 & concentrated in the governates & larger cities of the East Bank. The LF remains predominantly M, has decreased slightly, & is significantly influenced by the emigration rate & the immigration of non-Jordanian workers. Both the number of schools & students in Jordan have increased dramatically since the ealy 1950s; in particular, F enrollment has risen. The dropout rate & student-teacher ratio have declined, although a serious shortage of qualified teachers exists. 17 Tables. L. Holland

In: Research in Social Movements, Conflicts and Change, Volume 37
Volume 37 explores the question, what can the emerging discipline of intersectionality studies contribute to our quest to understand and analyze social movements, conflict and change? This collection is part of a continued broadening and deepening of the theoretical contributions of intersectional analysis in understanding social structures and human practices. It lends analytical eye to questions of how race, class, and gender shape strategy and experience in social change processes. It also stretches to include thinking about how analysis of age, religion, or sexual identity can influence the model. The papers contribute to our growing understanding of ways to use the social power analysis unique to the intersectional lens to offer new perspectives on well-researched questions such as group identity development in conflict, coalition organizing, and movement resonance. Through the intersectional lens questions often ignored and populations traditionally marginalized become the heart of the analysis. Additionally, the volume also considers how surveillance and information sharing shape the complex relationship between democratic freedoms and hegemonic governmental systems.
