ArticlePublisher: 2004Description: p.11-15.Subject(s): Local government | Women in politics
In:
KurukshetraSummary: Democratic politics is, in reality, the interplay of vested interests and PRI's great achievement has been to mandate a vested, and mutual interest, between women and the political process. If the wisdom of grassroots organisations, especially the courage and clarity of women, is to become policy, it will not be through the art of intellectual persuasion but by the arrangements made within a political system for their voice to have power. Bringing women into power is thus a matter of equity, of correcting an unjust and unrepresentative system. - Reproduced.
