Introduction: South Asia, Gender, and Critical Regionalism in a Time of Unrest
摘要
This chapter draws an overview of contemporary South Asia, makes arguments on corporeal politics, including tenets of deconstruction, and philosophizes about “death” and “dying” through the lens of the phenomenology of rights’ claims, temporality, and the anxious situatedness of being. This chapter resumes a project of self-determination, borrowing voices from the context of the silences, exclusions, erasures, distortions, and arbitrary fictions of gender and gendered beings, offering a political spectrum that couched in a grand antipatriarchal plan that would change the historical imperial character of gendered pedagogies in South Asia.
