IRSA Mission: Our primary mission is to empower researchers, academicians,
and students by providing them with the necessary tools, guidance, and platforms
to excel in their academic pursuits. We believe in sharing knowledge free of cost
because knowledge is for sharing, not for sale. We aim to foster a community that
values knowledge sharing, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the development
of cutting-edge research methodologies. IRSA aims to connect research scholars
5
on one platform to exchange creative, constructive, promotional, and progressive
dialogue with research scholars in all the universities, colleges, and research
institutes of India.
Achievements: Our first major achievement is successfully bringing researchers
from across the country together on a single platform. With a proven track record
of organizing successful events, including two 10-day workshops on Data
Analysis Using SPSS Software, we have garnered a large number of participation
from leading academicians, researchers, and students across India. Our lecture
series, workshop and also book discussion sessions have been successful in
reaching every state and UTs of our country. Consequently, 2000+ young
researchers have connected with IRSA from all over India on various social media
platforms. Delegates from various countries like the USA, France, Germany,
Russia, and Bangladesh have visited this virtual platform and shared their
knowledge and experiences. We have successfully conducted 50+ lectures, 10+
book discussions, and three workshops with the participation of professors,
researchers, and professionals. These sessions have provided a platform for
insightful discussions on topics such as key concepts of research methodology,
how to develop a questionnaire, how to avoid mistakes during research,
hypothesis testing, and many more; book discussions on various contemporary
issues like Reimagining Innovation Systems in Covid and Post Covid,
Globalization and Sustainable Development, Internal Security and so on have
received positive feedback for their depth and relevance.
Brief About the Book: This handbook provides a comprehensive, interdisciplinary
overview of key theoretical, analytical and normative approaches, topics and debates in
contemporary scholarship about gender and citizenship. It demonstrates how diverse historical,
social, political, economic and legal dimensions have shaped the evolution of gendered
citizenship in different parts of the world, as well as how these dimensions transform the
interrelations between individuals, social groups and communities across time, place and space.
Bringing together insights from scholars across gender studies, political science, law,
sociology, philosophy and cultural studies, this book demonstrates how intersectional and
transnational approaches can provide us with theoretical and methodological tools to
understand gendered inequalities and injustices in societies. Chapters examine relations
6
between gender, sexuality, populism and nationalism; transnational feminism during times of
#MeToo and Black Lives Matter; the increasing political and popular support of LGBTQ+
claims as human rights issues; trans/gender citizenship; gendered indigenous citizenship; and
the intersections of gender, religion and citizenship, among others. The handbook concludes
with future directions for research guided by the main debates about intersectional and
transnational approaches in the field of gender and citizenship.
