ABSTRACT
The primordial perspective of this paper is to basically grapple with the nuances of three books on ethnographic studies and try to bridge the linkages of the perspectives on sexuality, reproduction and power and seeing this whole discourse through a Foucauldian perspective .It takes a very exploratory, unbiased perspective of a participant observer of appraising the Foucauldian themes of bio-politics(governmentality, theology, and sexuality).The critical analysis of the ethnographic studies is deemed to have been through this somewhat finite Foucauldian perspective and it circumscribes around the abstract spatial connotations of sexuality, keeping in mind its applicability in Foucauldian discourse on bio-politics and also elucidating the fact that health care may be a gendered process in different communities in Rajasthan., Egypt and even Carnia. An ethnography is to be done in complete participant observation according to Malinowski and Radcliffe Brown. The prime-mover of this paper is to study the discourse of bio-politics, its shortcomings and the exploratory approach of evaluating this perspective to find a rational appraisal of evaluating the applicability in the aspects of gender and reproduction keeping the key Foucauldian themes of “The Foucault Effect: Studies in Governmentality”(1991) and “Religion and Culture”(1999) in the backdrop. The paper aims to adapt the methodology of mainly drawing some of the themes of “Fertility Patterns in A Rajasthan Village” (Tulsi Patel,1994)as an ethnography and making an appraisal with works of Aparna Rao(2000) like “Culture Creations and Procreations” and “Conceiving Persons” by Patrick Heady and Peter Loizos(1999) which circumscribes around the spatial connotations of sexuality keeping in mind its applicability in political philosophy and also elucidating the fact that health-care may be a gendered phenomenon in India. The concluding critical review would be structured keeping the broader aspects of participatory action research in the backdrop.
