Women in the Shadow: Gender, Puppets, and the Power of Tradition in Bali

---

The book Women in the Shadow: Gender, Puppets, and the Power of Tradition in Bali explores the intersection of gender, performance, and cultural tradition within Balinese society through the lens of puppetry and ritual arts. It examines how women, often marginalized in the male-dominated world of traditional performance, negotiate power, identity, and agency within the constraints of cultural norms. Through ethnographic research and critical analysis, the author reveals the subtle ways in which women participate in, influence, and reinterpret traditional art forms, challenging dominant narratives about gender and authority in Balinese culture while highlighting their vital yet often unseen contributions to the continuity of tradition.
