Transforming the State from Within: Women Changing Local Governance in India

By Sreevidya Rajeswari Kalaramadam

This study shows how the policy of PRI is embedded within everyday practices and social relations of identity and power, and how this fact shapes the "participation" of EWRs. It explores how notions of "private" and "public" spheres get reproduced within PRIs and act as hurdles for EWRs to assert their new political subjectivity. Additionally, it shows how structural factors such as lack of resources and control over decision-making, make EWRs appear as "failed agents" of development. Further, participation of EWRs is limited by political parties who determine the election of particular EWRs and constrain their actions by subsuming it within larger "party interests."
