Mytheli Sreenivas studies the history of gender, reproduction, and population politics in modern India, with attention to how ideas about birth control, eugenics, and abortion shaped and were shaped by national and transnational feminist movements. Her work draws on historical and social-science methods to examine how reproductive policy connects to broader questions of women's rights, development, and nationalism in India and its ties to the United States. This research is well-suited to students interested in gender history, South Asian studies, or the politics of reproduction.
Publication output has been uneven over the last decade, with bursts of activity in 2017 and 2021 followed by gaps, and only a few outputs recorded since 2022.
