Courting Desire: Litigating for Love in North India

Beschreibung

Courting Desire traces organically evolving ideas on sexual consent and legal subjectivity through a study of marital patterns in North India. Through research in courtrooms and community spaces, it outlines the processes through which eloping couples secure legal validity for their relationships of choice where family-arranged matches are the norm.
