Drawing from extensive fieldwork and firsthand data, Chains of Hope tackles the hidden injustices woven into social systems that affect millions of lives – particularly in India, but with echoes across the globe. Through vivid case studies and engaging storytelling, it examines the realities of arranged marriage, the dowry system and related violence, and the widespread undervaluing of daughters. The book translates academic findings into practical insights, making complex topics accessible and relevant to everyday readers, and offers evidence-based pathways for change. It serves as both a call to conscience and a guide for policymakers, advocates, and ordinary readers dedicated to creating a more just and compassionate world.
