Abstract

Abstract This article examines how weather became an important element of India’s imperial project particularly after 2019, while its everyday forecast and management, as well as its seeming predictability, offered the Indian state an illusion of control in Kashmir’s uncertain political terrain. Against this backdrop, the article foregrounds how weathering the occupation offers a critical analytic to track the eco-logics of the Indian occupation in Kashmir and to consider how Kashmiris rely on the potency of differently constituted “earth beings” to envision alternative political, ecological, and geographic futures. As Kashmir’s climate vulnerabilities intensify because of India’s occupational and settler-colonial regimes, how can weather intrusions unravel geopolitics and contest the fiction of national cartographies? In other words, how might centering weather, rather than nation or borders, help us reenvision Kashmir’s futures beyond the confines of Indian statehood?

抵抗占领
本文探讨了天气如何成为印度帝国计划的重要元素,特别是在2019年之后,而它的日常预报和管理,以及它表面上的可预测性,为印度政府提供了一种控制克什米尔不确定政治地形的错觉。在此背景下,本文展望了占领的风化如何提供了一种批判性的分析,以追踪印度在克什米尔占领的生态,并考虑克什米尔人如何依赖不同构成的“地球生物”的力量来设想不同的政治,生态和地理未来。由于印度的占领和定居者殖民政权,克什米尔的气候脆弱性加剧,天气入侵如何能破坏地缘政治,并质疑国家地图的虚构?换句话说,以天气为中心,而不是以国家或边界为中心,如何帮助我们重新构想克什米尔在印度国家地位之外的未来?

期刊介绍: A respected forum since 1962 for peer-reviewed work in English literary studies, English Language Notes - ELN - has undergone an extensive makeover as a semiannual journal devoted exclusively to special topics in all fields of literary and cultural studies. ELN is dedicated to interdisciplinary and collaborative work among literary scholarship and fields as disparate as theology, fine arts, history, geography, philosophy, and science. The new journal provides a unique forum for cutting-edge debate and exchange among university-affiliated and independent scholars, artists of all kinds, and academic as well as cultural institutions. As our diverse group of contributors demonstrates, ELN reaches across national and international boundaries.
