Facets of Muslim Women in the Deccan

Echoes on Culture, Education, Work, and Health

About this book

Facets of Muslim Women in the Deccan: Echoes on Culture, Education, Work, and Health investigates Deccan, a cultural and historical heart of India, with a focus on Muslim women and collects observations and findings in the field focusing on issues of history and culture, family, education, work, and health. It is women who carry the double burden of poverty and discrimination and, as some studies in the various sections show, Deccan is no different. These women, though not a homogeneous group by way of caste, class, religion, or economic activity, share a common struggle against oppression and exploitative conditions. Utilizing primary data, this book delves into topics of culture, family, education, and the feminization of labor in organized sectors.
