Recenzii
“This is an interesting and wide-ranging book … . the book explicitly sets out to offer a critical perspective on women in the workforce in the context of macroeconomic policies and neo-liberal economic globalisation.” (Geeta Balakrishnan, Social Change, Vol. 53 (4), December, 2023)
“The book by Patel and Mondel is treasure of knowledge for anyone who wishes to learn and comprehend ‘women and work’, whether in totality or with respect to any specific segment/domain. It is an eclectic assemblage inclusive of theoretical underpinnings and voices from the rural as well as urban grassroots. A must read for academicians, researchers, students, practitioners from wide disciplines to expand their knowledge and attain holistic understanding on the subject!” (Meenu Anand, The Urban World, Vol. 15 (2), 2022)

Textul de pe ultima copertă
This book explores Indian women's economic contribution through paid and unpaid work in different sectors of the economy and society in extremely diverse life situations and geographical locations. It highlights gender implications of interlinkages between local, national, regional and global dimensions of women's paid and unpaid work in India. It encompasses a vast canvas of life worlds of working women in the metropolitan, urban, peri-urban, rural, tribal areas in manufacturing, agricultural, fisheries, sericulture, plantation and service sectors of the Indian economy. It provides nuanced insights into intersectional marginalities of caste, class, ethnicity, religion and gender. The chapters are based on primary data collection and triangulation of qualitative and quantitative research methodologies. It presents the multiple marginalities of Indian women in the globalized political economy of the 21st century. It not only focuses on emerging issues but also suggests evidence-based policy imperatives. This book is an essential read for researchers, scholars, policymakers, practitioners and students of women/gender studies.
