| Abstract: | The struggle for equal rights in Asia has been slow to gather momentum. But as wealth, health conditions and literacy rates rise across the region, women are serving notice that they are no longer willing to accept anything less than their fair share. Githa Hariharan is a successful feminist writer based in New Delhi, but she has a lot in common with an illiterate vegetable vendor in Bombay. She is discriminated because she is a woman. |
