The term feminism is often treated as a stable and universalizing
politics and practice. For postcolonial feminism, the issues of
interest are not only social and cultural inequalities in terms of
caste, class, colour, ethnicity, gender, and religion, but also
historical, political, and geographical inequalities in terms of
'Third World', 'Global South' and 'remnants of the colonial past'.
Postcolonial feminism pays nuanced attention to historical
diversity and local specificity of feminist issues. This book draws
upon the work grounded specifically in the context of India,
Pakistan, and Bangladesh to demonstrate the plurality of thinking.
In mainstream management and organization studies, context is often
understood as a present, static field. This book discusses how
context is an important consideration for any management and
organization study and for feminist studies in management and
organization studies. It informs the way we need to understand
context, not just as 'present' but also the 'past'. Postcolonial
feminism highlights the historical roots and past privileges of a
context which often get overlooked in the management and
organization studies where context is mostly seen in the present.
This unique contribution to postcolonial feminism in management and
organization studies highlights the contributions of women writers,
poets, and activists such as Christina Stringer, Elena Samonova,
Gayatri Spivak, Mary Douglas, Naila Kabeer, and Uzma Falak. Each of
these women have engaged with writing that have the potential to
enrich and transform understanding of postcolonial feminism in
management and organization studies, making this book a valuable
resource for researchers, academics, and advanced students.
