Frontmatter and Editorial

Year: 2025

Type: paratext

Abstract: In lieu of an abstract, here is the first paragraph of the frontmatter and editorial: “Passages to India. Literary and Socio-Political Perspectives on Gender Concepts in India” is dedicated to the investigation of the country's prevailing gender concepts and gender politics. India is a country which appears to have a rather distinct history and agenda in this regard, particularly compared to Western feminist theories, concerns and histories. The articles assembled in this issue of Gender Forum offer insights into the status quo of feminist concerns in India and approach this topic from a variety of angles, including analyses of literary representations, religious discourses and socio-political developments, to medical-juridical concerns.
