About the Project

Project term: April, 2020–March, 2023

There has been increasing academic interest in “emotions” that is rooted in the common acknowledgment that conventional approaches based on “reason” or “dialogue” have not been enough to understand phenomena such as populist politics and hate speeches. This joint research project aims to rethink social changes/social movements in contemporary SouthAsia from an “emotions” perspective, and explores the historical changes in “emotions” by examining specific historical events such as the Partition, populist Hindu right-wing politics, ethnic movements, and counter-movements against caste/gender.
