abstract: This study investigates the political rights of women by exploring women’s political participation. As Karnataka, India, knows good practices regarding empowering methods the situation of urban and rural women from this state has been explored. Women’s political participation has been conceptualized using theories of Milbrath & Goel (1982), Bryson (2007) and Joshi (2003) to be able to capture the width and range of participation. The educational theory of Situated Learning (Lave & Wenger, 1991) is introduced to approach different empowering methods as participation, and vice versa.	An ethnographic approach is used to explore women’s political participation in Karnataka. The results show that women’s political participation comprises a wide range of public and private activities. In the process towards women’s participation foremost the social context, the family and community actors seem to be important. Moreover, the concept of women’s places and spaces was recognized.
