One of the most dynamic feminist movements in the world, Indian
feminisms are seldom given the recognition they deserve, not only
for the essential work they do but for the successes they've had.
This collection of essays, written by well-known activists and
founders of prominent Indian feminist institutions, will change
that. In addressing how women's oppression and discrimination lie
at the intersection of complex inequalities of caste, religion,
class, race, and ethnicity to name only a few the essays here make
a case for constant introspection, reflection, and self
questioning, so that the movement can learn and grow. They show how
in India, and across much of South Asia, it is feminists who have
stood against capitalism, war, violence, environmental degradation,
and fundamentalism, and have forged alliances with various other
movements learning from them, working to strengthen them, and
infusing them with feminist analysis. Focusing on the post-1980
period of the Indian feminist movement a moment rich in new and
different modes of resistance and of widespread political
engagement with issues of rights, justice, and identity Indian
Feminisms is a comprehensive and valuable glimpse into the history
of modern activism.
