Community, market and state. These collectively control and consume women’s domestic and sexual services within the private and public spheres for smooth functioning of the capitalism system. Women labour plays an integral rule in social reproduction processes and reproduces social hierarchies. The failure to connect women’s domestic labour and social precaution results in the treatment of work undertaken by them as unpaid labour, which is not regarded and recognized as an economic activity. This pper studies the commodification of women’s bodies, to argue that violence is an integral part of the strategy of control of women and is structural in character. Violence in the public and private spheres is integral to the strategy of control over women and various forms of their services and labour. – Reproduced  aSocial Scientist  aWOMEN cAR 00102ddc40709398918aIIPAbIIPAd2023-10-11h51(7-8), Jul-Aug, 2023: p.77-86pAR129753r2023-10-11yAR
