Hustling the State
Hustling the State Women’s Movements as Policy Entrepreneurs: Engaging the State in India Charu Bhaneja A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy Graduate Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Charu Bhaneja (2014) ~ ii ~ Hustling the State Women’s Movements as Policy Entrepreneurs: Engaging the State in India Charu Bhaneja Doctorate of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto « 2014 » Abstract This study examines the opportunities and constraints women activists confront as they pursue strategies to influence public policy in a fluctuating, diverse and complex political arena. To illustrate this, I suggest that engagement with the state can be efficacious in certain instances (violence against women) but that in those cases where women face structural constraints (women’s political representation), where the challenges are powerful, opportunity to have an impact is limited. Examining the extent to which the state has been an arena where women’s groups have been able to demand and achieve change provides significant insights into political environments that shape women’s agency and advocacy within that region. My doctoral thesis takes a multi-level approach in order to understand the impact of women’s movements on the state and its institutions. I maintain that women’s movement activity elicits state responsiveness and I analyze three factors to support my claim. First, I consider what government is in power and how open it is to engagement. Secondly, I consider how cohesive the women’s movement is on a particular issue and thirdly, I iii maintain that women’s national machinery can be an effective channel for implementing women’s interests. -
