Women as Subjects affords a rare opportunity to consider the
changing identity and status of women in India today- how they view
themselves and how they are viewed- through the current work of
seven scholars- anthropologists, historians, and sociologists from
India, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
These essays combined with Nita Kumar's substantial theoretical
introduction, illustrate the overall problem of women's
subjectivity extraordinarily well and serve to question, modify,
and adapt Western-based feminist theory and Eurocentric postmodern
theory, building a bridge both to non-South Asian feminist work and
to nonfeminist South Asian work.
