Puwar has written about and researches postcolonialism; institutions, race and gender & critical methodologies and has written two books; Space Invaders: race, gender and bodies out of place (2004),[4] in which she argues that that diversity is about perceptions of whiteness rather than how whiteness operates,[5] and Fashion and Orientalism (2003).[6] In 2007, she directed the film Coventry Ritz which emphasizes "the haunting remnants of emptied out architecture and unused space."[7]
