 Domesticating Malayalees: Family planning, the nation and home-centred anxieties in Mid-20th century Keralam
The paper tries to unsettle the naturalized association often assumed in the existent literature between the modern family and the small family in 20 th century Malayalee society.
Further, it considers the question why Malayalee sub-nationalist sentiment, which peaked in the 1950s, actually sanctioned a reduction in the numbers of Malayalees, and why calls for assertion of the Malayalee identity were fully compatible with the desperate call to reduce their numbers.
In conclusion, the paper gestures at what is called the process of `Domestication': a process by which the major share of the energies, interests, desires etc. of individuals have been directed into their families, in which the Family Planning Programme is taken to be a major event.
