An Interview with Tithi Bhattacharya
From: Crisis and Contagion
$1.50
In this chapter, Ian McKay interviews Tithi Bhattacharya. Tithi Bhattacharya is professor of history and director of Global Studies at Purdue University and a renowned feminist scholar whose work on both social reproduction theory and the gender politics of contemporary India has won a wide and appreciative global audience. Her edited collection on social reproduction theory suggests that a full understanding of the capitalist world demands close attention to the preconditions of that world in the often unpaid, generally disregarded—and in a time of pandemic, often very dangerous—work undertaken disproportionately by women. This work is that which makes our social order conceivable.
