| 520 | |a Gail Omvedt (1941-2021) has left a rich and varied body of research work that consistently examined the actions, aspirations, and practices of the marginalised classes of India. Beginning with her doctoral work on cultural conflicts in colonial India, undertaken in early 1970s, Omvedt persisted with her special focus on Dalit life world, exploring their histories, ideologies, and politics. Right through her career, Omvedt defied the established academic frameworks, working largely from within the lifeworld of the Dalits, women, and peasants, developing new frameworks and tools suitable to make sense of the dynamics of her chosen area - caste and gender in Indian society. From an early stage in her career, she seems to have found the established analytical frameworks of Marxism and feminism inadequate to deal with the situations in India. She also deviated from the entrenched protocols of sociological research by weaving in historical, political, and cultural analysis in her sociological work. Likewise, she approached history through the lens of sociology. Ignored by the academic sociology circles initially, her work always resonated with widespread readers resulting in many of her books running into multiple editions. The value of her contributions may be sensed not only by the fact that her books are now prescribed materials for academic studies in universities, but also by their popularity among social activists. | ||
