This book reflects the changing modalities of Hindu nationalist
organizing among women and youth. It provides unique insights into how
this immensely powerful political formation has been able to preside
over a massive network of grassroots organisations among most segments
of Indian society and capture national power. Chapters explore the
techniques the RSS, VHP and BJP employ and the messages they convey
about masculinity, femininity, and LGBTQ communities, and analyze
contrasting forms of women's activism in defending and opposing Hindu
nationalism. This book contributes to the global literature on the
gender dimensions of rightwing politics. By exploring why women advance
the agenda of the Hindu Right despite its conservative views on gender
and sexuality, the book makes an important intervention in feminist and
women's studies scholarship.
