Sommario/riassunto |
|
Contributing to debates on feminism, this book considers the impact made by feminists in India from the 1970's. Geetanjali Gangoli analyses campaigns on issues of violence and women's rights, and debates on ways in which feminist legal debates may be limiting for women and based on exclusionary concepts such as citizenship, and sets them within a wider analysis of the position of women within the Indian state. |
