Chubin's research and teaching broach comparative and intersectional examinations of gender, race and class, identity politics and the resistance of subaltern women. Her upcoming book "Becoming Proper: Feminism and the Politics of Respectability in Iran" examines the class and ethnic discourses of respectability entangled with Iran’s middle-class feminism to demonstrate how attempts for women’s liberation can facilitate class and ethnic hierarchies. Her book examines the translation and adaptation processes involved in the implementation of social programs in marginalized cultural contexts and the importance of cultural competency for transnational activists.
