This book reflects the changing modalities of Hindu nationalist
organizing among women and youth. It provides unique insights into
how this immensely powerful political formation has been able to
preside over a massive network of grassroots organisations among
most segments of Indian society and capture national power.
Chapters explore the techniques the RSS, VHP and BJP employ and the
messages they convey about masculinity, femininity, and LGBTQ
communities, and analyze contrasting forms of women's activism in
defending and opposing Hindu nationalism. This book contributes to
the global literature on the gender dimensions of rightwing
politics. By exploring why women advance the agenda of the Hindu
Right despite its conservative views on gender and sexuality, the
book makes an important intervention in feminist and women's
studies scholarship.
