Overview
Background Current Western discourses on women’s movements in Saudi Arabia proffer an understanding that is adverse to history and sidelines the region’s local knowledges, replacing such knowledges with a techno-utopian assumption that technology would produce better social or political conditions, and exhibit a pattern of disembodiment.Analysis This article endeavours to disturb ahistorical, monolithic, and disembodied accounts of Saudi women’s movements through three interventions: the historicization of the Saudi women’s activism and feminist movements; the recognition of the heterogeneity of Saudi women’s movements; and finally, the acknowledgement of the corporeality of Saudi women’s resistance.Conclusion and implications These interventions facilitate a better, more nuanced, and more contextual understanding of revolutionary and feminist practices, not only in Saudi Arabia, but also elsewhere in the world.Contexte Les discours occidentaux actuels dépeignent les mouvements féministes en Arabie saoudite d’une manière qui est contraire à l’histoire et qui marginalise les savoirs locaux de la région. Ces discours occidentaux remplacent les savoirs locaux par une approche techno-utopique selon laquelle la technologie réaliserait de meilleures conditions sociales ou politiques. Ces discours manifestent en outre une tendance vers la désincarnation.Analyse Cet article met en question les comptes rendus ahistoriques, monolithiques et désincarnés sur les mouvements féministes saoudiens en soulignant : l’historicisation du militantisme des femmes saoudiennes et des mouvements féministes dans le pays; la reconnaissance de l’hétérogénéité des mouvements féministes saoudiens; et finalement la corporalité de la résistance par les femmes saoudiennes.Conclusion et implications Ces mises au point permettent une meilleure compréhension, mieux contextualisée et plus nuancée, de pratiques révolutionnaires et féministes, non seulement en Arabie saoudite mais aussi ailleurs dans le monde.
