Frank Korom organizes international workshop on comparative nationalisms in South Asia
With funding from the Crafoord Foundation and SASNET, Frank Korom and his colleague Jan Magnusson at Lund University have organized an international conference to bring together an interdisciplinary group of scholars who work within South Asia. The goal was to bring together one scholar who works in each country of the region to compare notes on how religion and nationalism work hand in hand in these post-colonial societies. The proceedings will eventually published in a first of its kind volume employing the “new comparativism” currently emerging within anthropology and other fields.
