Reseña del libro "Vulnerable South Asia: Precarities, Resistance, and Care Communities (en Inglés)"
This innovatively organized volume brings together reflections on crisis and community in South Asia by some of the most important authors and scholars writing about the Indian subcontinent today. The various pieces, including the foreword, the poetic interludes, the nine different essays on a range of topics, as well as the afterword, all seek to understand the precarious state of our planet and its population, and the ways to resist - through both writing and teaching - the forces that render us vulnerable; to create "care communities" in which we look out for, and after, each other on egalitarian rather than authoritarian terms. Turning to literary and cultural criticism in precarious times reveals the immense value of the humanities, including volumes such as this one. This collection is a significant intervention in the on-going global conversation on precarity, vulnerability, and suffering, not only because these issues have preoccupied the human race through the ages, but also because our present moment - the now - is characterized by pervasive hazard that writers, readers, teachers, and humanists must call out, talk and write about, and thus resist. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal South Asian Review.
