520 _a'Subaltern Studies' has been widely recognised as the most exciting intervention in Indian historical and cultural studies over the past two decades. This volume confronts a whole range of new issues raised by the relations between community, gender, and the politics of violence. One set of essays looks at the question of 'women and nation', especially minorities. Another set looks at women and minorities in the context of the law. Political violence and 'masculinity' are the subject of two essays, while in her summation of the issues raised by the volume as a whole Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak considers the position of the 'new subaltern'-the third-world labouring woman within a globalized economic space.
