The Status of Women in Korea and Jordan. This essay discusses the treatment of women in Korea and Jordan. In comparing both cases, we see that the justification for women's oppression resides in the argument that it protects the moral stability of society. Religion is exploited in both societies to rationalize men's power over women. The paper finds that there appears to be more hope in Korea than in Jordan, since in Jordan the idea of a women's movement does not even exist -- as it does in Korea. 9 pgs.
