Description

Explore a unique anthropological study through this Routledge publication. This book examines the specific relationship between prostitution and patriarchy among the Bedias, an extremely marginalized de-notified community in north India. It provides a detailed account of how systematic familial prostitution affects kinship structures and marriage practices within this group. The text highlights a distinct social division among the Bedias, specifically the separation between sisters and daughters who engage in prostitution and the wives and daughters-in-law who do not. This work offers a rare look at the social dynamics of a community where these two roles exist side-by-side. For students and researchers in anthropology and sociology, this book serves as a primary resource for understanding complex social hierarchies and the impact of economic practices on family structures in north India.
