The book in my eyes

This book is a blend of activism and academic rigor in writing. It gives feminist and gender over the communist politics. It also shows the evolvement of communist ideology for transforming society. At the same time, it provides a terrain of thoughts to shape and reshape the same ideology. The author has reflected her understanding theoretically and brought women leaders' understanding to see its connection with the UML policies, strategies, and implementation status. In doing so, the author has challenged the mindset of the male leaders of the same political party. Finally, she has come up with different ways to transform the devoted cadres of her political parties into a critical mass.

Going through this book, I found the author very bold to review her political party critically, to show the amalgamation of democratic ideals in the authoritative orientation of the communist party under PMPD. Everywhere she is searching for women's position as a leader, as a cadre, and as a user of the communist ideology for social transformation. In this sense, this book is worth reading for the students, politicians, academia, and change agents, and people of different mindsets. - Dr. Bidya Nath Koirala Professor of Tribhuvan University

This book is very unique. It is a kind of work that can be written only by a person who has gone through the political struggle herself.

In this book, based on her Ph.D. thesis, Dr. Binda Pandey makes an important contribution to the analysis and recording of women's contribution to the left movement generally and the struggle of the women within that movement to institutionalize feminist concerns.

Here is a brilliant and much needed socialist feminist analysis of a leading Left Political Party What makes this book authentic and useful, is the fact that the author has been politically active for almost 40 years at local, national, and global levels and is an insider.
