How did reproductive politics become central to producing modern India? In her latest book, Mytheli Sreenivas (The Ohio State University) tackles this question and turns to the history of marriage, the family, and contraception to show that reproduction was central to debates about politics, economics, and the future of independent India.
Join us Tuesday, November 9 from 12:15–1:15 pm (ET) for the next event in the “Conversations on South Asia” series featuring Sreenivas’s Reproductive Politics and the Making of Modern India (University of Washington Press, 2021) to hear more.
Amna Qayyum (Jackson Institute for Global Affairs, Yale University) and Carole McCann (Gender, Women’s, + Sexuality Studies, UMBC) will be joining the author as discussants.
Elizabeth Lhost (History, Dartmouth) will host the conversation, moderated by Douglas Haynes(History, Dartmouth).
