Gendered Time, Seasonality, and Nutrition
Some of the key pathways linking agriculture and nutrition run through women’s work, yet the evidence on these links are weak. Using time-use data from two Indian districts, this paper seeks to fill this gap.

The emerging evidence points to the nuanced ways in which social identi…

A detailed discussion on the construction of 'women' by colonial and anticolonial forces prior to Independence helps place the post-Independence period in context. Because the issues are complex and intertwined, it is argued that in the Indian context the definition of conventional feminism needs to be substantially enlarged to incorporate the vast canvass cover…
