- More about Emotions, Mobilisations and South Asian Politics
The book highlights the role of emotions in the contentious politics of modern South Asia, bringing new methodological, theoretical, and empirical insights to the mutual constitution of emotions and mobilizations in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. It emphasizes that emotions are significant in politics because they have the power to mobilize and explores a variety of emotions including anger, resentment, humiliation, hurt, despair, and nostalgia. The interdisciplinary research presented here shows that integrating emotions improves our understanding of South Asian politics, while focusing on South Asia helps retool current thinking on the emotional dynamics of political mobilizations. The book offers contextual analyses of how emotions are publicly represented, expressed, and felt, shedding light on the complex nature of protests, power relations, identity politics, and the political culture of South Asia.

This book delves into the intricate interplay of emotions and politics in modern South Asia, offering a fresh perspective on the dynamics of mobilization and emotion. Through a multidisciplinary approach, it explores the profound impact of emotions on political processes in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, shedding light on three crucial questions: how do emotions shape mobilization, how do mobilizations influence emotions, and what insights can studying emotions in mobilization offer about the political culture of protest in South Asia?
The chapters in this volume emphasize the pivotal role of emotions in politics, recognizing their capacity to mobilize individuals and communities. They examine a diverse range of emotions, including anger, resentment, humiliation, hurt, despair, nostalgia, enchantment, humor, pleasure, hope, and enthusiasm. The interdisciplinary research presented here demonstrates that integrating emotions enhances our understanding of South Asian politics, while also contributing to rethinking prevailing theories on the emotional dynamics of political mobilizations.
The book provides contextual analyses of how emotions are publicly represented, expressed, and experienced, shedding light on the complex nature of protests, power relations, identity politics, and the political culture of South Asia. By intersecting South Asian studies, emotion studies, and social movement studies, this cutting-edge research volume appeals to scholars and students in political science, anthropology, sociology, history, cultural studies, and the broader public interested in South Asian politics.
