[ecrea] Censorship in South Asia

Thu Sep 03 12:18:27 GMT 2009



I hope the following will be of interest to you:

Censorship in South Asia
Cultural Regulation from Sedition to Seduction
Edited by Raminder Kaur, University of Sussex & William Mazzarella, University of Chicago

"This is an exciting and innovative volume that will become the standard reference in the field for some time to come." ­Thomas Blom Hansen, author of The Saffron Wave: Democracy and Hindu Nationalism in Modern India

Censorship in South Asia offers an expansive and comparative exploration of cultural regulation in contemporary and colonial South Asia. These provocative essays by leading scholars broaden our understanding of what censorship might mean - beyond the simple restriction and silencing of public communication - by considering censorship's productive potential and its intimate relation to its apparent opposite, "publicity." The contributors investigate a wide range of public cultural phenomena, from the cinema to advertising, from street politics to political communication, and from the adjudication of blasphemy to the management of obscenity.
