This booklet starts off by explaining the difference between sex and gender, the form as a biological category and the latter as its socially constructed expression. It goes on to examine the intersection of gender with other identities such as caste, class, ethnicity and nationality. The author explains the historic context of redefinitions of gender and sees how it can be integrated with other factors to analyse and plan development.
