Incarcerating Women in Tribal Areas: A Third World Feminist Critique
Abstract
The purpose of this research is to highlight the miserable condition of women in third world society and the way they are treated by men in male-dominated society with reference to Jamil Ahmed’s debut fiction, The Wandering Falcon Henceforth. The women are still incarcerated in third world countries despite several movements of their freedom, equality and liberty. They are maltreated not only by their husbands but also by their parents. Furthermore, they are sold and purchased in the open market same as other commodities and their rape, slavery and subjugation are not considered obnoxious in the frontier areas. This research contributes to resolve the problems of the women in third world countries in general and tribal areas in particular.
