Women And Class Struggle: A Marxist Feminist Perspective In The Sari Shop By Rupa Bajwa

Abstract

The present paper seeks to explore the female characters in The Sari Shop by Rupa bajwa in the light of Marxist feminism. The efforts and the way to women’s emancipation is largely dependent on the type of the State and the particular association of class forces in any specific society. These forces are held accountable for the unequal status of women and the brutality against women, the everyday embarrassment and making of several blockades in women’s struggles for freedom. This kind of recognition is important for the expansion of a tactic to attain women’s emancipation. Women comprise half the population of the world yet majority of them are still considered worthless. The biggest aim of one’s life is to have a prosperous life, access to education, good job and a decent social standing. Since everyone has a different status in their life, these social classes mark the distinction between the people. Discrimination is not a favourable action of anyone established on gender, race, or any other distinctiveness but it is rather considered as a hurdle to the accomplishment of the objectives of equality, growth, and harmony. From Marx’s perspective, all social orders that have at any point existed are “class social orders” of some sort. The fundamental rights for both Women and men are equal regardless of gender, social status, race, or any other factors. As a consequence, women have all the right to live their life on their own terms
