Om Revolutionary Desires
Revolutionary Desires examines the lives and subjectivities of militant-nationalist and communist women in India, from the late 1920s, shortly after the communist movement took root, to the 1960s, when it fractured. This book traces the experiences of these women, showing how they were constrained by, but also questioned, the gendered norms of Indian political culture, including those that governed revolutionary organizations. It examines how their lives and actions and expanded the possibilities available both to women and to revolutionaries in India.
