Women in Kerala, South India, have been working in cashew factories since 1930, challenging the stereotypical view of "Third World" women. They have organized into unions, worked in the formal sector, and become literate. By the end of the twentieth century, they numbered around 200,000 and were a major part of the working class in Kerala. The historical background for this interdisciplinary study is the "Kerala Model," which is characterized by radicalism, resource redistribution, and high social indicators for both men and women. The analysis examines change and continuity in material realities, as well as in discourses and ideologies.
