The South Asian nations i.e. Afghanistan Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka have been rich cultural zones with a history of thousands of years. It saw the rise of various civilizations, religions, dynasties, human groups, cultures, and arts. The geographical and ethnic-cultural South Asian regions have been presented and represented in varied and variegated forms in literary discourses, arts, and heritage symbols. After the orientalist representation and interpretation, counter-representation and interpretation began both in India and abroad. But the area is so vast that there always remain new things to be explored, interpreted and established. Any discussion on anything belonging to the subcontinent is incomplete without interdisciplinary discussion of the cultural elements.
Aims
The Journal of South Asian Exchanges aims to foster dialogue and exchange of ideas among scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and students who are interested in the studies of the emerging research areas of South Asia. The journal seeks to promote the critical perspectives of the social, economic, and cultural domains of South Asian countries. It has also the basic objective of promoting and globalizing the anthropocentric activities of the South Asian nations. The journal is also committed to itself to empowering the (g)local South Asian regions to challenge the privileging neo-colonial forces of the present era. It also aims to cultivate new clusters of regional expertise and specific, newly intersecting forms of interdisciplinary scholarship.
