ABSTRACT

The Conclusion chapter brings together the divergent tangents that run through this book, and delineates the textures, potentialities, and challenges that mark the new feminisms engendered by the postmillennial socialscape. The new feminisms channelize an embodied, affective resistance that politicizes precarity and deploys the quotidian within a new mediality in fluid mobilizations. In this, it articulates an inclusive politics that does not judge or place restrictions on participants. These rhizomic digitalisms that have facilitated counterpublic openings for women thus break the received understanding of mainstream feminist activism in India, marking the threshold an intimate rebellion of new possibilities.
