In India, over 90,000 men die by suicide every year. Fathers are separated from their children by biased courts. Men from Dalit and working-class backgrounds languish in custody under laws designed to protect but routinely weaponised. Yet their pain is invisible - dismissed as privilege, mocked as weakness, or simply erased.
Men, Marx, and Misunderstanding refuses that erasure.
Written by a former legal activist with SIFF and trained in law and psychology, this book applies Marxist class analysis to the Men's Rights Movement in India and beyond - arguing that gender wars are a weapon of capitalist patriarchy, not a solution to it. Section 498A, carceral feminism, media vilification, Dalit incarceration, father alienation: each is examined with rigour, compassion, and political clarity.
This is not a book against women. It is a book against a system that exploits everyone.
Includes practical legal toolkits, policy reform proposals, feminist and MRM primers, a full timeline of gender law in India, and data on law misuse.
Essential reading for activists, students, policymakers, lawyers, and anyone who believes justice must be indivisible.
