the untold story of Cornelia Sorabji, reformer, lawyer and champion of women's rights in India

- Description
- Cornelia Sorabji was a truly ambitious and remarkable woman. She was intellectually daring and physically courageous As India’s first female lawyer, she was original and often outspoken in her views , for example, in her criticism of Gandhi and her surprising friendship with Katherine Mayo. Cornelia Sorabji resists easy classification, either as a feminist or as an imperialist. An Indian whose loyalty to the British Raj never wavered. A passionate advocate of women’s rights whose own career was nearly compromised through her inappropriate relationship with a married man. An independent and free-thinking intellectual who depended for work on patronage from an élite circle. Cornelia Sorabji's long and fulfilling life was anything but simple. How did she reconcile these apparent contradictions? How did she succeed in opening doors to aspects of Indian and British life which remain closed to so many, even today -- and where did she run into difficulties?

- Description
- First published in 2017. The author presents new research examining how different groups in India conceptualise violence against women and girls, revealing beliefs around religion, caste and gender that render aggression socially acceptable. She also analyses the role that neoliberalism, and its corollary consumerism, play in reducing women to commodity objects for barter or exchange and can converge unexpectedly to normalise violence against women. Due to these complex and overlapping factors, rates of violence against women in India have actually increased despite decades of feminist campaigning. This book gives an overview of Indian gender politics and gender-based violence, but also presents new data and methodologies which have practical implications for researchers and policymakers worldwide.

- Description
- In this book a number of India's leading feminist economists, historians, political scientists, journalists and anthropologists investigate the contemporary situation of women in India. The volume focuses on four domains: the cultural, the social, the political and the economic. The writers argue that despite apparently positive indicators of progress in education and paid employment, women's status has not improved. They point out that steadily falling sex ratios even show a growing bias against the female child.

- Description
- The debate on censorship in India has hinged primarily on two issues-the depiction of sex in the various media, and the representation of events that could, potentially, lead to violent communal clashes. This volume traces the trajectory of debates by Indian feminists over the last 25 years around the issue of gender and censorship. .Censorship was institutionalised by the colonial British Government, and has remained a much contested government institution. In a multicultural society with diverse tastes and moral standards, who is to draw the line? And what reasonable curbs can be imposed on the freedom of expression? Can artistic merit be conflated with public good? Is the desire to purge the public arena of unnecessarily prurient and lascivious images actually in the interests of women and of society at large?
