Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Indian Journal of Gender Studies examines gendered experiences within various social and cultural contexts in India. It explores themes of identity formation, particularly for transgender individuals and women, and analyzes the impact of structural patriarchy on issues like sexual harassment in the workplace and the division of household labor. The journal also addresses the intersection of gender with environmental resource control and the evolution of women's studies as an academic field.
