About the Series

The series will provide a mix of interdisciplinary presentations by established scholars and post-graduate students. The papers reflect the currently emerging major areas of research interest in the South Asia field such as Diaspora, and Partition Studies. The presentations will not only be of intellectual concern to South Asia specialists, however, but to those with a comparative interest in issues of identity and politics, violence and end of empire and post-colonial migration.
