穆斯林妇女在西方社会的参与受到特定限制的阻碍。本文基于对比利时安特卫普一个少数民族社区的定性访谈，重点关注摩洛哥妇女参与休闲活动和她们对公共空间的不确定使用。该文件表明，摩洛哥妇女在从事户外活动时遇到的困难是由于希望维持现有权力关系的统治集团的领土行为造成的。柯林斯的统治矩阵被用来概念化所涉及的统治关系，其中融入了综合伊斯兰教。运用萨克的人类地域性理论分析了社区的空间策略。作者的结论是，如果萨克的集中权力概念被一个更分散的概念所取代，那么萨克的理论就非常适合于分析邻里层面的领土性，这个概念同时考虑了支配和抵抗。在这种抵抗的发展中，边界和地理范围发挥了至关重要的作用，这两者都被萨克忽略了。版权所有(c) 2003年荷兰皇家地理学会KNAG。
Muslim women's participation in Western society is hampered by specific restrictions. This paper, based on qualitative interviews in an ethnic neighbourhood in Antwerp, Belgium, focuses on Moroccan women's participation in leisure activities and their noncommittal use of public space. The paper demonstrates that the difficulties Moroccan women experience in undertaking activities out of the house result from the territorial behaviour of dominant groups wishing to maintain existing power relations. Collins' matrix of domination is used, into which is integrated Islam, to conceptualise the dominance relations involved. Spatial strategies in the neighbourhood are analysed by means of Sack's human territoriality theory. The author concludes that Sack's theory is well suited to the analysis of territoriality at a neighbourhood level, if his centralised power concept is replaced by a more fragmented one, accounting for both dominance and resistance. In this development of resistance, borders and geographical scale, both neglected by Sack, play a crucial role. Copyright (c) 2003 by the Royal Dutch Geographical Society KNAG.
