Vortrag von Prof. Radha S. Hegde (NYU) The materiality of the diasporic experience is embedded within overlapping geographies and transnational processes that are increasingly mediated. Scripts of authentic Indianness travel across media platforms and politics strategically linking and delinking the diasporic to the nations of residence and origin. This talk will discuss the changing nature of the diaspora and national affiliations as defined and transformed within global assemblages of capital, media, publicity and nationalism.
