Reviews
'An important and politically timely volume on the two partitions that brings together leading scholars in the fields of media and cultural production. It is fuelled by a shared aspiration, which is to challenge the binaries of history and construct a more open and vibrant mediascape in South Asia.' Nira Wickramasinghe, Professor of Modern South Asian Studies, Leiden University, Netherlands 'Two partitions, bloodbaths, and migrations define toxic nationalisms in South Asia. As a region still struggling with decolonisation, it is imperative that the religious and militaristic constructs of national identity be challenged through discourses that have been excluded from the mainstream and suppressed by coercive states. This volume is seminal in many ways as it aims to foster dialogue among scholars and practitioners. It is a valuable reference for students, thinkers, and publics within and beyond South Asia.' Raza Rumi, Director, Park Center for Independent Media, Ithaca College, USA, and Editor-in-chief, Nayadaur Media
