Abstract

In countries that practice Islamic law by constitutional mandate, women's lives are severely affected both in the public and private spheres. Consequently, the different feminist movements struggle to impose the gender perspective with varying results depending on the context. In this sense, it is possible to affirm that the role of Sharī’a in a national legal system depends not only on governance issues but on the level of acceptance or rejection of discriminatory measures and the alliances built to defend or contest them. In this article, a socio-legal study on the fight for equality in Sudan is featured based on the feminist theory and the advocacy coalition framework. In addition to contributing to the understanding of women’s agency in African Islamic countries, it illustrates the complexities and challenges faced within the framework of the promotion and defense of the rule of law at the international level
