73(4), Oct-Dec, 2023: p.364-377 Through field aberration experiences and interviews in Chizami, in Phek District, Nagaland. I came to think about economies of cure; a network of traditional subsistence-based practices in indigenous communities that are closely related to women’s care and care work today. I look at seeds, labour and food as sites of practicing care, and caring as a paradigm of community and multiplexes exchanges. The aim of the paper is to work towards two inter-related ends; one, to problematic the devaluation of women’s care work and two, to foreground the value of these economics of care for imagining, buildings, food sovereign communities. – Reproduced Social Action 231117
