Multiple Mediations: Feminist Scholarship in the Age of Multinational Reception
Lata Mani received her Ph.D. from the University of California, Santa Cruz in 1989. She has been active in feminist struggles in India and in feminist and antiracist work in the US.
Kum-Kum Bhavnani, Vivek Dhareshwar, Ruth Frankenberg, Mary John and Kamala Visweswaran have left the imprint of their critical readings on the final version of this paper. I am also indebted to Indian feminists and progressives whose political insight and imaginative interventions in the contemporary debate on widow burning have been inspiring and instructive. An earlier version of this paper appeared in Inscriptions, no. 5, University of California, Santa Cruz, 1989.
