Gender, Ethnicity, and Political Agency explores issues and debates around political agency, focusing on women of the South Asian diaspora, and arguing that political agency unfolds as multi-layered and as infused with contradictions, ambiguities and ambivalences. Throughout the book, the practices and experiences of political agency are shown to develop through the micro-politics of local activism and daily life.
