The Jordanian Day-Waged Labor Movement (DWLM) played a central role in the Jordanian Popular Movement (al-Hirak al-Shabi al-Urduni),commonly referred to as Hirak,from 211 to the end of 212. The large number of women who were active and took on leading roles in the DWLM contrasts with the absence of women’s rights organizations in the Hirak. I argue that the DWLM was able to attract so many women because it developed a discourse and flexible structure that understood women to be embedded within communities and prioritized their economic needs. By studying this discourse and structure,it is possible to learn important lessons about gender-inclusive political and institutional reform.
