The public healthcare system in rural India is chronically under-resourced. It embodies and often perpetuates the wider politics of the Indian state towards its rural communities with provisions of care that are deeply entangled with violence and disgust. For rural women, such care deepens reproductive chronicity while providing temporary relief. Grounded in women’s everyday realities and experiences in sterilization camps and other healthcare settings in rural Rajasthan, State Intimacies examines the mundane workings, ambiguities and fragilities of care in post-colonial rural North India.

Arvustused

Sterilization camps have earned a bad press in India and rightly so. Yet, as Eva Fiks demonstrates in her elegant intervention, coercion is entangled with care for village women contending with the reproductive chronicity that is integral to their daily lives. Patricia Jeffery, Professor Emerita, University of Edinburgh





The book draws on detailed ethnographic research and is rich with empirical details that are framed within larger debates on womens health, care, and state formation. The introduction immediately draws in the reader. It is a well-written and well-researched book. Lipika Kamra, Jindal Global University
