About the Book
The present book is an attempt to project the challenges posed by feminist scholars to various disciplines of Humanities and Social Sciences for their inherent androcentric bias and logocentrism. The book further highlights the contribution of Third World feminism in dismantling all sexist assumptions and misconstrued values that have ruled the disciplines all along. It also brings to fore the Third World challenges to the essentialist, universalist and monolithic assumptions of Western feminist discourse. This book shall prove to be a veritable resource for scholars, researchers and students interested in Feminist Studies, Political Theory, Gender Studies and all other subjects of Humanities and Social Sciences.
