Recenzje

I welcome the idea of putting such a volume together, with a bunch of excellent essays drawn from across a wide range of disciplines inspired and indebted to the life work of Ashish Nandy ... one of the most remarkable postcolonial thinkers whose concerns, provocations and analyses have shaped much of modern social science scholarship in India and elsewhere. The consistent synthesis of brilliant arguments, unsettling insights and eclectic conceptual geographies make it necessary to address Nandy's intellectual universe in a comprehensive way and the proposed volume is precisely such an effort.
