An active commentator on the blog, she has also translated fiction and non-fiction from Hindi and Malayalam into English.
Her previous books include Recovering Subversion: Feminist Politics Beyond the Law (2004) an edited volume, Sexualities (2007) and Power and Contestation: India after 1989 (2007, co-authored with Aditya Nigam). Nivedita Menon teaches Political Thought at Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi. For Nivedita Menon, feminism is not about a moment of final triumph over patriarchy but about the gradual transformation of the social field so decisively that old markers shift forever.įrom sexual harassment charges against international figures to the challenge that caste politics poses to feminism, from the ban on the veil in France to the attempt to impose skirts on international women badminton players, from queer politics to domestic servants' unions to the Pink Chaddi campaign, Menon deftly illustrates how feminism complicates the field irrevocably.
