This article delves into the impact of digital activism on the leadership style of female-led non-governmental organisations operating under restricted access to opportunities. The focus is on Muslim sisterhood activism, examining the shift from offline to online activism led by the younger generation. The article analyses the barriers that have historically prevented Muslim sisterhood activists from playing leadership roles within the Muslim Brotherhood group and compares offline and online leadership roles using the case study of the Revolutionary Coalition for Egyptian Women from 2014 to 2023, with a focus on 2014. The study reveals that the younger generation of Muslim women has adopted a language that prioritises self-representation and body politics over religious discourse, indicating a heightened awareness of gender politics during the period between 2014 and 2023. To overcome state-imposed restrictions, the younger generation of the Muslim sisterhood has contradicted their well-established values on women’s roles and focused their political agendas on regaining popularity in Egyptian society. By exploring the impact of different political opportunities on women’s leadership roles through the political process paradigm, this article bridges a gap in the literature on resistant politics, feminism, leadership, and digital activism. The study shows that the younger generation of Muslim women is spearheading a strategic change in the resistant activist discourse, utilising the new digital space for activism to promote their cause.

女性领导角色:主体性和自我表现

本文探讨了数字行动主义对在机会有限的情况下运作的女性领导的非政府组织的领导风格的影响。重点是穆斯林姐妹会的激进主义,探讨由年轻一代领导的从线下到线上激进主义的转变。本文以 2014 年至 2023 年埃及妇女革命联盟为例,分析了历史上阻碍穆斯林姐妹会积极分子在穆斯林兄弟会团体中发挥领导作用的障碍,并比较了线下和线上的领导角色,重点关注 2014 年。研究显示,年轻一代的穆斯林女性采用了一种将自我代表和身体政治置于宗教话语之上的语言,这表明 2014 年至 2023 年间,她们对性别政治的意识有所提高。为了克服国家施加的限制,年轻一代穆斯林姐妹会的一代人违背了她们既定的妇女角色价值观,并将政治议程集中在重新获得埃及社会的支持上。本文通过政治过程范式探讨不同政治机会对女性领导角色的影响,弥合了抵抗政治、女权主义、领导力和数字行动主义文献中的空白。研究表明,年轻一代的穆斯林妇女正在带头进行抵抗激进主义话语的战略变革,利用新的数字空间进行激进主义来促进她们的事业。
