Safety for women in India is, more often than not, coded as curtailment of women's mobility and autonomy. To be safe, women are told, they must allow themselves to be kept under constant surveillance and control and must be confined to the home or hostel as much as possible. This book will take a closer look at the familiar, intimate ways in which households, communities, culture, the state and political economy work together to rationalize, even celebrate the curtailment of women's autonomy
