Abstract: Leah Sawalha asks about the silence surrounding reproductive rights for women in Jordan. She raises the difficult question about the need for such silence in a patriarchal society, and how to change the social and cultural situation so that women's voices are heard. Development (1999) 42, 41–46. doi:10.1057/palgrave.development.1110009
