This book explores global narratives on gender by looking at womens engagement in political conflict and militarisation in the Darjeeling Himalayas, located in the Eastern Himalayan region of India.
Approaching Global Politics from the margins, Dipti Tamang moves beyond the strictly defined contours of the discipline by highlighting the stories and lived experiences from these communities, providing a unique contribution to the growing feminist scholarship from the Global South.
Dr Dipti Tamang is a Fulbright-Nehru Post-Doctoral Scholar at Cornell University, USA and Assistant Professor at Darjeeling Government College, West Bengal, India.
