Abstract: The Women's Cause. An Irrelevant Issue in the Islamic Democracy of Iran Fariba Adelkhah Since the end of the 80's, the condition of Iranian women became significantly better. Many of them participate in the public sphere and got an economical or social activity. Rafsandjani's politicy of liberalization furthered this womens's investment, which became more explicitly political. However, women remain out of a number of social areas and are still victims of social and legal discriminations. Indeed, only seem possible the progress respecting the traditionnal Islamic think about women's condition in life, and serving the «honour of the system», rather than attacking it. In this context, the veil paradoxically makes easier the investment of women in the public sphere.
