Item Male Hegemony in Jane Austen’s Persuasion(Department of English, 2007) Neupane, AsmitaPersuasion examines how Jane Austen is guided by the ideology of male hegemony. Her female characters, in one or the other way, manage to live under the umbrella of patriarchy without the resisting power. They never realize their confinement and humiliation in a male oriented society. They are attached to the traditional patriarchal stereotypes and internalize their submissiveness as patriarchal society demands them. Their absence in public affairs and property right,and their confinement within the narrow boundary of domesticity reflects Austen’s internalization of male oriented ideology.Item Promoting Women’s Entrepreneurship in Sri Lanka(2019-08) ADBItem Role of women's participation in household’s solid waste management in Kathmandu metropolitan city ward no. 32, Nepal(Department of Rural Development, 2022) Kc, AnupaSolid waste management (SWM) has become a major concern for municipalities and the country, the current state of SWM is unknown due to a lack of SWM baseline data, which is required for successful planning.
