Produktbeschreibung
Ethnography of student life at a university in the South Indian state of Kerala that focuses on the relationship between youth consumer practices and notions of gender, cultural citizenship, and globalization.
""Liberalization's Children" is a fascinating exploration of key contemporary issues in India with relevance for other non-Western contexts. Ritty A. Lukose investigates the formation of gendered identities in Kerala in relation to nationalist constructions of femininity and masculinity as well as the pulls of migration to West Asia and North America. Her achievement is to provide a useful mapping of the continuity with older forms of gendering alongside the disruptions caused by the developments of the 1990s. She does this by showing how the axes of difference emerging from colonial and post-colonial modernities underpin the apparently new experiences of globalization."--Tejaswini Niranjana, author of "Mobilizing India: Women, Music, and Migration between India and Trinidad"
