Abstract

This paper reflects on the experience of teaching a course on women and society in a sociology department over a long period in M.K.S College, Chandauna, Trimuhan,Darbhanga,Bihar).This is discussed from different angles-related to sociology and its disciplinary location; questions of women’s studies and feminist politics; and the complex dimensions of pedagogy in particular. The diversity amongst students and the politics of the classroom repeatedly emerge as critical issues in the paper. The essay concludes with some theoretical reflections on the problems of relating experience with analysis by drawing on the ethnomethodology of Harold Garfunkel.
