Postcoloniality, Religion and Nation:

The focal area for the January 2023 issue of Postcolonial Interventions will be the intersections between religion, nation and postcoloniality. Historically, colonial regimes often worked in alliance with Christian missionaries leading to assaults on indigenous cultures, religions, languages and so on. Postcolonial resistance therefore predictably often involved revivalist religious movements of various shades and creeds and visions of nation were also often enshrined in religious rhetoric. Ironically or perhaps inevitably, such movements have again gained traction across the world, particularly in the subcontinent where belligerent religious nationalisms and vitriolic communal machinations are generating increasingly colonial patterns of violence, incarceration, discrimination and exclusion. Postcolonial Interventions invites scholarly essays dealing with such issues across a variety of media and genres.
