| This book explores the paradox of women’s paid and unpaid work in India. It examines key themes including historical discourses, macroeconomic policies, employment trends, issues of tribal areas, public services and infrastructure, climate change and gendered migration and vulnerability of girls. It highlights the play of gender norms, resource rights, identities and agency in women’s work. Building on feminist theoretical frameworks and empirical analyses from microstudies, the volume offers fresh perspectives for research and policy on women’s work in the Global South. *** Introduction by Ellina Samantroy and Subhalakshmi Nandi *** PART I: Conceptual and methodological evolution in understanding women’s unpaid work *** Framing the discourse on women’s unpaid work in India by Ratna M.
