Aims
The Journal of South Asian Exchanges (JSAE) aims to foster dialogue and exchange of ideas among scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and students who are interested in the interdisciplinary 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.
