This book addresses itself to the relationship between the
ideological and material which has long occupied a primary place in
Marxist scholarship and is seen to be of central importance to
feminist analysis. This book looks at some aspects of the debate in
the context of Asia. In particular, it examines the role that
ideology can play both as a disabling and an enabling factor in the
lives of women seeking to earn a livliehood for themselves and
their families under conditions of poverty. The case studies relate
to a mixed set of Asian countries, with an associated diversity of
cultural and economic conditions. Haleh Afshar is also editor of
"Iran: A Revolution in Turmoil", "Women and Ideology" and "Women,
State and Ideology". Bina Agarwal is editor of "Structures of
Patriarchy: State, Community and Household in Modernising Asia" and
author of "Mechanisation in Indian Agriculture" and "Cold Hearths
and Barren Slopes: The Woodfuel Crisis in the Third World".
