Domestic Days: Women, Work, and Politics in Contemporary Kolkata

The book is based on narratives of part time women domestic workers residing in two slum colonies of Kolkata who talk about their work and lives. By moving continuously between the workplace and the homes of the workers, this book talks not only about labour but labouring lives. It also discusses public policy and politics with its historical negligence of this section of workers as well as the recent attempts to give them voice and visibility.
