| Summary / Abstract (Note) | This Editorial introduces the papers in this special conference issue of Contemporary South Asia, placing them in the context of the 24th British Association for South Asian Studies (BASAS) annual conference, held at the University of Warwick in March 2010. The conference theme was 'Landscapes of the imagination', and the papers in this Special Issue reflect a range of approaches to this theme, in terms of methodology, topic and regional spread. Despite their diversity, however, the papers do reflect a common concern to contest a singular, unproblematic and unified experience of South Asian modernity. |
