New South Asian Feminisms: Paradoxes and Posibilities (Zed Books, 2012)

Edited by Srila Roy

University of Nottingham

  

In conversation with Shireen Hassim, Sharad Chari and Rebecca Walker

This has been the result of constant attack from right-wing nationalism and religious fundamentalism and co-option by 'NGO-ization' and neoliberal state agendas.
