- Description
- This book provides the ethnography of how middle-class women in India understand and experience economic change through transformations of family life. It explores their ideas of marriage, childbirth, reproductive change and their children's education, and addresses the impact that globalization is having on the new middle-classes in Asia By focusing on maternity, the book explores subjective understandings of the way intimate relationships and the family are affected by India's liberalization policies. And by drawing attention to women's agency as wives, mothers and grandmothers within these new frameworks, 'Domestic Goddesses' discusses the experiences of different age groups affected by these changes.

- Description
- This book describes the experience of the white woman in colonial India in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It examines missionary and memsahibs' colonial writings probing their construction of Indian women of different classes and regions. Also examined are delineations of European female health issues in male authored colonial medical handbooks, which underline the misogyny undergirding this discourse. Giving voice to the Indian woman, this book also scrutinises the fiction of the first generation of western-educated Indian women who wrote in English, exploring their construction of white women and their negotiations with colonial modernities.

- Description
- This book is an examination of gender in South Asia and its intersection with other social variables like caste and class. There is an appraisal of what feminism means in the Indian context and the cross-cultural construction of patriarchy that varies in its manifestations across time and space. The readers are taken on a journey that shows how gender can only be understood in its social and historical context and as a dynamic and performative concept that emerges out of both collective imaginations and social realities.
