| Abstract [eng] |
This special issue was originally proposed for a panel for the European Association of South Asian Studies Conference in Vienna in 2021. Some of the papers were presented as part of the conference and the rest were contributed through a special call by J-Caste journal. The contributions in this specific issue (Historical and Contemporary Anti-caste Utopias: A Dalit Bahujan Discourse) touch upon the following questions: Did the idea of utopia vanish in the contemporary times? Are there any anti-caste imaginations in the experiences of various Dalit-Bahujan groups while they challenge the ‘dominant’ social order? What utopias are conceptualized through Dalit religious conversions? How can anti-caste utopias be part of the pedagogy? Is it possible to articulate utopias through everyday materiality of lived traditions? |
