Abstract
The overall aim of the research is to understand the relationship between women and the land in a rapidly changing rural society in the economically better off and socially progressive region of western Maharashtra, India. It also seeks to investigate if and how women claim their inheritance rights. The study aims to understand how rural women negotiate their identities in relation to land on the backdrop of increasing incidence of land sale, migration and urbanisation.
