This book critically examines the ever-evolving relationship between gender, identity and technology, investigating how identity is shaped, expressed, and contested within virtual environments.It brings together empirical essays from various geographies including Israel, Italy, South Africa, Spain, Brazil, and India, to explore how gender constructs, religiosity, social support structures, ethical discourses, biases and toxicity weave into the digital fabric. While the digital space can build community and open up liberating possibilities, it also retains echoes of real-world social and gender dynamics. The absence of the physical body does not shield virtual spaces from deeply entrenched socio-cultural and political contexts. Through an exploration of different virtual platforms and digital apps like Facebook, WhatsApp, and Tinder among others, the book invites readers to contemplate the boundless possibilities and pressing challenges that arise when gendered experiences converge with the infinite expanse of the virtual space(s). The chapters in this volume offer great analytical insights into these dynamics supported by well-surmised theoretical and methodological backdrops.The book will be of interest to practitioners of social sciences, especially those interested in issues of gender and identity politics as well as research in the digital or virtual space. It will also be a valuable resource for students and researchers of anthropology and sociology.

Transcultural Negotiations of Gender probes into how gender is negotiated along the two axes of ‘belonging’ and ‘longing’– the twin desires of being located within a cultural milieu, while yearning for either what has passed by or what is yet to come. It also probes into the category of ‘transculturality’ itself, by examining how not only does it pertain to the coming together of cultures from diverse spatial locations, but how shifts over time and changing performative modes and technological means of articulation, within what may be presumed to be the same culture, can also lead to the ‘transcultural’. The volume comprises four sections. Part I, ‘(Be)longing in Time’, examines negotiation of gender through transcultural acts of myths, rituals and religious practices being revised and revisited over time. Part II, ‘(Be)longing in Space’, studies how gender is renegotiated when people from different spaces interact, as also when public spaces and domains themselves become sites of such negotiations. In Part III, ‘Performing (Be)longing’, such transcultural negotiations are located in the context of changing modes of performance, considering particularly that gender itself is performative. The final section, ‘Modernity, Technology and (Be)longing’, traces how gender becomes transculturally negotiated in a space like India, with the advent of modernity and its companion technology.
