This book presents a pragmatic engagement between the philosophy of Deleuze and Guattari and various facets of Indian society, culture and art. The universal appeal of the philosophy of Deleuze and Guattari finds its due place in India with a set of innovative analyses and radical interpretations that reimagine India as an assemblage of conflicting cultural currents, rabid caste discrepancies, uneven social and economic development, and stark gender disparities. The volume brings together scholars from various disciplines and theoretical orientations to explore a wide range of issues in contemporary India, including Dalit and caste studies, nationalism, gender studies, art and cinema under the rubric of Deleuzo-Guattarian philosophy. This interdisciplinary book will be useful to scholars and researchers of philosophy, anthropology, cultural studies, sociology, postcolonial studies and South Asian studies.
