What the paper says

This article contextualizes the burgeoning feminist movement in Pakistan and critically analyzes responses from right-wing factions and the state. Tracing its roots to women’s negotiations within the patriarchal domestic sphere, the movement centers body politics, sexual agency, and bodily autonomy. Backlash has included state reinforcement of traditional roles and right-wing anti-gender politics through disinformation and moral policing. The article highlights the dynamics of repression and resistance, examining feminist strategies to navigate challenges and their broader implications for gender politics.
