Women's Studies in India.

Talwar, Rashmi

Leadership Journal: Women in Leadership--Sharing the Vision, v2 n1 p47-50 Fall 1997

Interest in women's issues in India has grown since 1975, when a report on the status of women raised concern about women's equality. Women's studies entered India's university curriculum only in 1986 but with little encouragement from the emerging women's movement. In India, women's studies looks to the West for research methods and ideas and is striving for intellectual identity. (MSE)
