Why Do the Women Lack Effective Political Power? | Gender and Politics in India

Описание: The place of women in Indian politics reflects the opportunities and constraints that are
associated with its democracy. Women have been key actors in the numerous social
movements and non-governmental organizations that underlie India's vibrant civil society. Over a million women are represented in the three-tiered panchayats.
Moreover, with the growth of a multi-party system since the early 1990s, political parties have increasingly sought women's electoral support. And yet most women continue to lack effective political power in parties and the state. Women's access to power is still mediated by their relationship to male kin and is often indirect and symbolic. Parties have done little to provide women access to the networks and resources that would enable them to ascend the ranks of party hierarchies.
