Summary, etc Gender and Radical Politics in India: Magic Moments of Naxalbari (1967–1975) explores the participation of women in the Naxalbari movement, one of the most significant revolutionary movements in post-independence India. Beginning with the peasant uprising in Naxalbari in 1967, the book examines how women became active participants in radical communist politics and how their experiences differed from those of their male counterparts. Drawing on archival sources, oral histories, and ethnographic research, Mallarika Sinha Roy investigates the relationship between gender, political activism, and revolutionary ideology. The book argues that women's emancipation was an integral part of the revolutionary vision embraced by many participants. It analyses how women negotiated questions of identity, equality, violence, leadership, and personal freedom while participating in political struggle. The author also examines how the memories of the movement have been shaped by gender and how women's contributions have often been overlooked in conventional historical accounts. Combining perspectives from history, political science, sociology, women's studies, and South Asian studies, the work provides an important feminist interpretation of radical politics in India. It is a valuable resource for researchers and postgraduate students interested in gender studies, political movements, modern Indian history, and social transformation.
