Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly interesting book studies the cultural context of modernisation of middle-class Muslim women in late 19th and 20th century Bengal. Its frames of reference are the Bengal 'Awakening', the Reform Movements - Brahmo/Hindu and Muslim - and the Women's Question as articulated in material and ideological terms throughout the period. Tracing the emergence of the modern Muslim gentlewomen, the bhadramahila, starting in 1876 when Nawab Faizunnesa Chaudhurani published her first book and ending with the foundation in 1939 of The Lady Brabourne College, the book gives an excellent analysis of the rise of a Muslim woman's public sphere and broadens our knowledge of Bengali social history in the colonial period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender inequality is a global phenomenon, only the manifestations vary form and degree in different cultures. In majority of the societies girls grow up with a nation of temporary membership in her natal home and considered as a reproductive machine in the family of 'in Law'. This reproductive role becomes limited to household chores. The women's role has changed tremendously and is making its greatest impact in our society today. Many years ago, women's contribution to society was limited and controlled by men. Women are standing tall and are playing a major role in many important areas. Women's role has changed at an accelerating rate and have part in areas such as politics, professional training jobs, medicine, business and law. Formerly they were not part of any political matter, but they have advanced in many aspectS.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Occupational structure of people is one of the significant determinants of human group disparities in socio-economic development. Various development indicators substantiate that women lag behind men in most of yardsticks that measure gender justice and human development, occupation is one of them. A country or society can't realize its dream of becoming super power by ignoring the better half of the humanity. This study aims to investigate Muslim women work participation in West Bengal based on population census in 2001, as the results have indicated that Muslims constitute 13.4 per cent of the country and 25.25 per cent of West Bengal's population. Indeed, it is the second largest religious minority community in the country. Sex ratio among Muslim population is 933 in West Bengal, which is higher than the national level. Illiteracy rate of Muslim women is higher and they have not been able to take full advantage in society. There also exists a wide gap between males and females work participation rate. Besides, a significant proportion of Muslim women are recorded as unskilled in the state. Keeping these points in view the present study analyses Muslim women work participation in West Bengal in general and by occupational groups in particular.

Book excerpt: In this book, we present the role of a modern Muslim woman, in the last quarter of 19th and first half of 20th centuries, and discuss the changes in their social, educational and political development in Muslim communities. Of course, their current stage of development occurred due to gradual change and development and the previous movements for their emancipation. These did not happen by chance but rather by a historical process, which have been achieved through various stages. It is important to be familiar with such chains of development, and how the general Muslim community and in particular Muslim women responded to these changes during the periods leading to the creation of many Muslim nations. In recent times there have been a number of studies on the status of Muslim women all over the world. Unfortunately, many of these studies incorrectly pointed out that their misfortune is determined by their religion, blaming Muslim personal law, marriage, divorce, deprivation of human rights, education, employment, freedom and self-determination. These lead to the continuous belief among many Non-Muslims and even among many Western educated Muslims that Islam is the obstacle for women's development and well-being, which is based on misconceptions about the position of women in Islam. In the present book, we take a different approach and show that the Muslim women's disadvantaged position can largely be explained by their local habits, poverty, inequality, unemployment, gender and social disability and injustice. In this respect, we extensively study the status of Muslim women in Bengal (presently Bangladesh and West Bengal, a state in India) during 1880-1937 to show that contemporaryMuslim women's social, educational and political development was similar to women of other religions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important and comprehensive volume vividly depicts the current status of women and girls in West Bengal. The analysis has been conducted in the framework of the socio-economic and politico-cultural ambience that has characterized the state in recent decades. The contributors highlight both areas of strength and vulnerability and clearly demonstrate that the status of women cannot be conceived as monolithic or static--it has many facets and is in a state of constant flux. The analysis of macro data is supported by revealing micro studies based on field surveys and an examination of cultural trends.
