Abstract:

The history of the transatlantic movements of South Asian-Americans proposes that the social production of space is characterized by disciplinary category work, side-by-side contradictory and ambivalent historical and nationalist narratives. Therefore, through various spaces of cathexis second-generation South Asian-American women both validate and rupture categories, In this talk, I focus on marriage practices to showcase women’s active efforts towards assimilation and opposition. I address here the acceptance of, manipulation of, and resistance to the white gaze. I accomplish this by presenting data from a feminist ethnography with a cross-national sample of 25 women.
