This pioneering volume critiques the work of four eminent Western feminists -- Rosi Braidotti, Judith Butler, Donna Haraway and Luce Irigaray -- in the light of original readings of a wide range of Indian feminist historians and theorists. Irene Gedalof's exploration of the relationship between Indian and white Western feminisms allows the development of more complex models of power, identity and the self -- opening up a path which allows the redefinition of women as a subject of feminism. Sophisticated yet accessible, Against Purity is a unique contribution to ongoing feminist debates about identity, power and difference.Subtitled Rethinking Identity with Indian and Western Feminisms.This text studies the relationship between Indian and white Western feminism. It provides an introduction to the work of leading Indian feminists and shows how Indian feminist causes have grown up alongside anti-colonial movements and the Muslim/Hindu conflicts.
