Mardi 5 novembre 2019 : « South Asian cinema(s): Power, citizenship and imagined communities »
Abstract
For the past thirty years, much has been written on the global outreach of Indian cinema in its « Bollywoodian » form. Through the work of researchers such as Rachel Dwyer (2000 ; 2002 ; 2006), scholarship has focused on the strong political messages found in this post-colonial artistic industry, and the many electoral uses of cinema. Recently, the « saffron wave » of Narendra Modi’s India has extensively relied on the support of superstars as political brokers between the BJP and Indian voters, as well as agents of the Hindutva project for « western » audiences.
Drawing on this scholarship, the seminar session aims to question the hegemonic discourses at work in the study of « Bollywood. » Our discussions aim to centre cinema(s) of South Asia, and the ways it helps in constructing the civil identities (based on gender, caste and class) and collective imaginaries (community and nation,) in multiple regional and sub-national contexts.
This session is open to any researcher interested in South Asian history, Political sciences, Cinema and cultural studies.
