Abstract
Presented below is a conversation between Ram Devineni and Comics-cum-Gender Studies scholars from India. Leveraging upon these two dimensions, the scholars involved in this interview problematise gender violence in the context of India and explore the possibilities of comics as a genre to sensitise society towards violence against women. In this conversation, Priyanka Tripathi and Bidisha Pal, both scholars of gender studies, lay the basic premise of gender discrimination and violence against women and discuss various operating forces in society. Comics scholar Partha Bhattacharjee points and counterpoints the relevance of comics in understanding this liaison between gender and society, especially as an emerging and popular medium with a possibility of massive outreach.
