"Based on empirical research in India, this book presents a post-colonial feminist
analysis of subjectivities available to Muslim girls and the ways in which they are
inhabited and negotiated. Examining government education policies together with the
narratives of teachers and parents, the author explores the manner in which gender,
class, ethnicity and religion intersect both to confer certain subjectivities and
to challenge or reinforce the conferred subjectivities. A study of the imposition
of subjectivities that label Muslim girls as economically subordinate and culturally
different, Contemporary Muslim Girlhoods in India analyses Muslim girls' reconstructions
of self through a combination of reflexivity, resilience and agency, and conformity.
Drawing on the thought of Pierre Bourdieu and Nancy Fraser, this volume offers an
original contribution to the study of gendered minorities, institutions and relationships
in post-colonial contexts, and an alternative to identitarian politics or cultural
explanations of Muslim women's educational deprivation in India. As such, it will
appeal to scholars of sociology and gender studies with interests in education, class,
religion and identity"
