WHAT IS PATRIARCHY?
Kamla Bhasin

Rs 55 Pb 1993
This pamphlet looks at the introduction of patriarchy by feminists as an analytical category in theorising women’s subordination – at how it is constituted; at its origin; and how it has evolved historically in different parts of the world. It locates women’s struggles in a context where the patriarchal control of major social and political institutions makes for special forms of discrimination against women.
