The dynamics of Indian politics is reflected in the flexible and fluctuating relations between the centre and the states as well as in the equations within the multiparty political system. This book is one of the first to explore the participation of women in state and local politics in India and how women navigate the dynamic spaces and hierarchies of the Indian political system.
With the help of in-depth studies of seventeen states in India, it analyses the gender profile of political parties and legislative bodies in these states; the question of women's representation which is miniscule in legislative assemblies and women voters and their voting choices. It also explores the lives and careers of women in local politics, the roadblocks and barriers they face, along with a study of women's participation in informal politics. The essays in this volume underline the need for women's active participation both inside and outside the party-system to make democracy more robust and meaningful.
