Hardcover. Condition: New. The book examines how medical knowledge is produced around bodies that do not fit in the heteronormative framework of the state s rationale and processes. The marginal bodies studied in this research are termed MSM, men who have sex with men, categorized as a high-risk group in the backdrop of HIV/AIDS. These Queer bodies entered the registers of epidemiology and governmentality. This classification is the point of departure for the book. The book interrogates and asks how does a sexual subject become a political question? To answer this political trajectory, the book analyses the category of risk in biomedicine. It investigates how the category of risk becomes critical to the Indian state s rationale and policies wherein, through the ambit of health and population, sexuality is managed. Unearthing the sexual politics in South Asia, the book, based on rich empirical evidence derived from the lived experiences of MSM, narrates the construction of sexual subjectivity and masculinity. The process of construction occurs in negotiation with the Indian state, bringing forth the dimension of the Indian state as a medico-legal governmentality regime and how MSM takes on the identity of a medicalized subject.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This pioneering volume makes a vital intervention to the growing movement of decolonising conceptual frameworks and methodological approaches in social sciences. By exploring the profound depth and diversity of Indian intellectual traditions, it positions this knowledge system as an essential resource for democratising philosophical dialogue across global traditions. The book restores the 'mediative flow' in the Indian knowledge system and proposes a 'democratic negotiation' among different epistemological frameworks, offering pathways towards a renewed philosophy capable of addressing humanity's most pressing challenges. Through engagement with original ancient texts and lived practices, the authors develop nuanced approaches that enrich contemporary social science research methodologies. The volume presents a rich tapestry of intellectual traditions spanning the Indian subcontinent-from classical texts like the Panchatantra and Mahabharata to the Indigenous traditions of Adivasi communities; from performative traditions like Koodiyattam to philosophical frameworks including Sufism, Sikhism, and Kashmir Shaivism. It explores the intellectual legacies of figures such as Dara Shukoh, Kabir, and Gandhi, while also examining ritual hermeneutics and the lifeworlds of Indigenous communities in Kerala and Assam.Representing a significant advancement in decolonial scholarship and cross-cultural understanding, this groundbreaking volume will be indispensable for students and scholars interested in the Indian Knowledge System, Indian Studies, South Asian Studies, Indology, and Indian Philosophy. It will be an important text for those interested in pedagogy, religion, consciousness studies, intercultural dialogue, Indigenous knowledge, cultural anthropology, literary studies, classics, language studies, and social anthropology.…
