This collection of twelve papers, earlier published in the quarterly journal Alternative Perspectives, attempts to evaluate the conventional understanding of identity, culture and resistance, and at the same time, present some key underlying arguments in a comprehensive form.

Focusing on three different themes which are closely interrelated, it deals with the assertion of discomfort against the politics of homogenizing articulation of identity and the over-simplification of gender issues on the pretext of women being a celebrated identity within our constructed sensibilities. It also examines the underdevelopment of Manipur’s economy and its ramifications leading to resistance and protests.
