<strong>Abstract </strong> Globalization is the process of increasing interdependence, interconnectedness and integration of economics and society to an extent that one event in one part of the globe affect people in other parts. Globalization has also affected different groups of women in Assam and now they have been changing and have been emerging from past tradition into new era of rights and freedom. The constitution of India guarantees equality of sexes and in fact grants special favors to women. There is no doubt that economic empowerment of women has a direct relationship to employment

Assam has traditionally a patriarchal society just like other states of India. In recent times we see the growing presence of Assamese women in national and international arena. Whatever may be the reason, Assamese women were always visible. Due to print and electronic media, today, activities of Assamese women have got wide publicity. But the irony is that despite their growing presence, we see some worst examples of growing patriarchy which are really paradoxical and can be called threat to women empowerment., In this secondary data based analytical study an attempt is made to examine the le

Abstract:
A rich body of scholarship exists on the Assamese identity question and the mass movements arising out of it. The gender aspect of this identity quest however has remained a curious omission in these scholarly debates. This omission is significant as women&rsquo;s large- scale participation in all the democratic protest movements was considered to be one of their most legitimising factors. This paper is an attempt to fill this gap, while steering clear of reducing it to an additive study. Drawing from the Foucauldian notion of power, it is argued that the process of consolidation of Assamese i

Postcolonial India is a complex and paradoxical mix of traditional practices and ultra modernity. This tension is especially apparent, and holds particular significance, with respect to women’s changing status and role. Driving this research is a concern to examine the impact that structural reforms and neoliberalism are having on women’s everyday experience of autonomy at home, in their careers and family life, and in the journeys they make from home to work through public spaces.

Cinema is said to be one of the most important and influential social institutions of our time. The Indian film industry, for instance, is the biggest in the world, churning out dozens of films belonging to different genres every year. A good movie is always characterised by a well-written script, right direction, brilliant acting, and use of mind-blowing visual effects whenever necessary. Very often, the protagonist of the films would be essayed by a male artist while the woman would play second fiddle.

Rarely would an auteur choose a female protagonist as the lead character for one's debut film. In 1935, Jyoti Prasad Agarwal chose a historical figure of Ahom princess Joymoti as the central character for the first Assamese film. Was it enough to portray an Ahom princess as the lead character, or was it lending the historical figure a new perspective? During the stated period in Assam, the cult of Joymoti had gathered momentum. In this discourse, much emphasis was given on Joymoti sacrificing her life rather than revealing the whereabouts of her husband Prince Gadapani to the state authorities

Today, issues related to gender and sexism in language have received unprecedented critical attention, because the language used to represent women in our society is typically gendered. A woman often faces different nuances of gender stereotyping to which one is exposed since one’s childhood—at home, in the locality, in schools and in the day-to-day social exchanges. Hence, there is an urgent need to explore the emotional, domestic, cultural and social territories as well as the personal spaces of women and discuss how in our society, the politics of language influences our perceptions about w
