Abstract

The Ema (Ima) keithel is one of the indigenous markets in the world. Women are the sole owners and traders of this market. The objective of the research was to study the Ema market through a gendered perspective and economic anthropological analysis, and its importance in society. Both qualitative and quantitative data were collected for the study. The qualitative data were collected through a case study and open-ended interview technique while the quantitative data were collected with the help of a questionnaire. The comparative analysis of the Ema keithel markets in Manipur is based on a variable like income earned in a day and the type of products based on the different markets of Ema keithel shows significant relationships among the income and types of products.
