- Book Synopsis
- Contributors to this special issue use a pluriversal lens to trace the colonial continuities, the imperial geographies, and the forms of difference through which people become subjects of, resist, and shore up security regimes across the world. Using a transnational feminist approach, the authors contest the boundedness of the category Global South, instead emphasizing the fluidity between supposedly separate scales, such as North/South and intimate/global. Essay topics include imperial warfare in East Africa, national security and the politics of protest at India's borderlands, the diasporic politics of race and class in Jamaica's security dynamics, the use of religion to designate state-sanctioned violence as legitimate, and securitizing patriarchies in postcolonial India. Contributors. Samar Al-Bulushi, Sahana Ghosh, Inderpal Grewal, Dipin Kaur, Negar Razavi, Sasha Sabherwal, Deborah A. Thomas
