The power of women's organizing

Description

"The Power of Women's Organizing is a work that offers a glimpse into the women's movement outside the United States. Mangala Subramaniam addresses the mobilizing and organizing of the Indian women's movement in the larger context of globalization and the national social fabric. She draws attention to the emergence of multiple interests based on class, caste, religion, and geographic differences. Uniquely featuring the integration of rural women's experiences and a case study of the dalit women's challenges, this work examines the women's movement in India since the 1970s, its growth, and the tensions resulting from the representation of varied interests."--Jacket.
