Explore the intricate landscape of Gender in Modern India through this collection of pioneering research, commissioned in remembrance of Biswamoy Pati. This vital volume offers a multi-layered, interdisciplinary examination of gender, weaving together themes of social reform, caste, Adivasi experiences, capitalism, masculinity, sexuality, health, culture, and migration. Featuring diverse case studies from across India, spanning different communities and marginalized groups like Dalits and Adivasis, the book highlights the complex negotiations of patriarchy. Delving into colonial and postcolonial contexts, it investigates how gender intersects with class, race, sexuality, and ethnicity, challenging stereotypes and revealing the pervasive nature of patriarchal structures. Essential reading for understanding contemporary Indian society and its evolving gender dynamics.
