Gender, Caste and the Imagination of Equality is a sequel to the widely-read and influential Gender & Caste: Issues in Indian Feminism (2003). This volume addresses the entanglements of caste and gender by asking how religion, political economy, image economy, and debates about sexuality and desire are reshaping the caste question in today’s public sphere. Contributors to the volume focus on the changed terrain of debate and discussion that has rendered intersectionality (gender, caste, class) obvious, yet insufficient, for understanding the complex ways in which debates over sex and social difference are being transformed in the current conjuncture.
