Chatterjee discusses the fetishization of women who labor under colonial, postcolonial and now neofeudal conditions. This book demonstrates that at the heart of these narratives of travel, conquest, and settlement are compelling stories of women workers. While exploring the global and political diemensions of local practices of gendered labor, the author also reflects on the privileges and paradoxes of her own ´´decoloniztion´´ as a Third World feminist anthropologist.
