This book investigates how women s power and caste cleavages often
continue to transcend and crosscut the boundaries of caste/tribe, gender,
age, class, and religion in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. Building upon
recent formulations of South Asian gender discourse, it explores the ways
that perceived notions of women and castified geographies are not only
structured in complex and localized relationships of dominance, but also
constituted by practices of the state and central governments. By examining
both the particularities of local women s efforts to improve themselves
and the ways that power is mediated, the author addresses the multiplex
ways individuals both adapt and contest the hegemony of the dominant
structures.
