Gender, Caste and the Imagination of Equality is a sequel to the influential volume, Gender and Caste: Issues in Contemporary Indian Feminism (2003). It explores the changed terrain of discussion, and examines how religion, political and economic relations, and debates about sexuality and the politics of representation have reshaped the caste question in contemporary public life.
