The Political Economy of Central Asian Law

In what follows, I first provide a brief overview of my ethnographic fieldwork experience and positionality, followed by the theoretical framework underpinning this research. The next section provides an overview of the existing literature on bazaars and the role of women within them. Then, I present the findings of my research, focusing on three key themes: the notion of bazaars as gendered spaces, the complex role of headscarves in navigating gender norms within bazaars, and the double burden faced by women traders. I conclude this chapter by summarising my key findings and their implications.
