Joan Wallach Scott鈥檚 acclaimed writings have been foundational for the field of gender history. With Sex and Secularism, she challenges one of the central claims of the 鈥渃lash of civilizations鈥� polemic鈥攖hat secularism guarantees gender equality. Drawing on a wealth of scholarship, Scott shows that the gender equality invoked today as an enduring principle was not originally associated with the term 鈥渟ecularism鈥� when it first entered the nineteenth-century lexicon. In fact, the inequality of the sexes was fundamental to the separation of church and state that inaugurated Western modernity. Scott reveals how the assertion that secularism has been synonymous with equality between the sexes has distracted our attention from difficulties related to gender difference鈥攐nes shared by Western and non-Western cultures alike.
