The article focuses on the challenges of interrogating privilege, so as to initiate a process of making classrooms space conducive to inclusive and collaborative learning. In doing so, it addresses three aspects of privilege; one, the need to make visible the ‘invisible’ presence of privilege and highlights the structures that renders it normalised and naturalised. Two, to emphasise the interrogation as a significant step towards democratising teaching and learning experience. Three, the necessity to reflect and document the pedagogical exercises essential to engage with privilege within the classrooms. The article using the autoethnographical method, places the ‘self’ at the core of interrogation and highlights the complexities of experience and the practice of self-reflexivity. In doing so the article makes an attempt to initiate a conversation on interrogation of one’s privilege as a pedagogical exercise.
本文关注的是审问特权的挑战,从而启动一个过程,使课堂空间有利于包容和协作学习。在这样做的过程中,它解决了特权的三个方面;第一,需要让“看不见的”特权存在变得可见,并突出使其正常化和自然化的结构。第二,强调提问是实现教学民主化的重要一步。第三,有必要反思和记录课堂上享有特权所必需的教学练习。这篇文章运用了自我民族志的方法,将“自我”置于审讯的核心,并强调了经验的复杂性和自我反思的实践。在这样做的过程中,文章试图发起一场关于作为一种教学练习的对一个人的特权的讯问的对话。

Universalising Sociology: Lessons From Radhakamal Mukerjee 普世社会学:拉达卡玛尔·穆克吉的经验教训

Even though Radhakamal Mukerjee is recognised as a founding father of sociology in India, he has remained a neglected figure in his own country. This lecture attempts to make his major writings more accessible. They are seen in the context of his life as he lived it, with an emphasis on some formative influences, biographical and societal, of his early life. This leads to an argument about his writings that highlights his overriding concern with universalising sociology by overcoming its narrowness so that it may contribute to the welfare of humanity. It is further argued that he is relevant to us at present in the face of the challenges of environmental degradation, the persisting pandemic, war, and our tendency to face these challenges not with truth but with falsehoods.
尽管拉达卡迈勒·慕克吉被公认为印度社会学之父,但他在自己的国家仍然是一个被忽视的人物。这个讲座试图使他的主要著作更容易理解。这些都是在他生活的背景下看到的,重点是他早期生活的一些形成性影响,传记和社会。这导致了对他的著作的争论,强调了他压倒一切的关注,即通过克服社会学的狭隘性来普及社会学,从而为人类的福祉做出贡献。有人进一步认为,在我们面临环境退化、持续的流行病、战争以及我们不以真理而以谎言面对这些挑战的倾向等挑战时,他与我们息息相关。

The New in the Old: Celebrating Fifty Years of Modernization of Indian Tradition 旧中新:庆祝印度传统现代化五十周年
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-03-14 DOI: 10.1177/00380229231155003
Dipankar Gupta
The most startling feature of Modernization of Indian Tradition is that it was so ahead of its times when it appeared in 1973 that most of us missed its full import. In those years there was, in the main, a simplistic understanding of modernisation as its markers were primarily technological achievements and western lifestyles, even affectations. In this book, Professor Yogendra Singh broke away from such formulaic renditions and instead proposed a social and relational view of modernisation where the principal emphasis was on how people interacted with one another and not on prowess facility with superior technical facilities or exterior presentation. Today we can appreciate the relevance of this approach for the drawbacks of correlating modernisation with things has proved to be inadequate, when not misleading, as it gives a skewed appreciation of the subject. Consequently, Enlightenment too gets a fresh coating for it now largely centres around the conditions of knowledge generation, which includes interpersonal relationships, and not on finished products of science. A person may, therefore, be very knowledgeable yet may remain quite un-modern when interacting with others.
印度传统现代化最令人震惊的特点是,它在1973年出现时非常超前,以至于我们大多数人都错过了它的全部意义。在那些年里,人们对现代化的理解主要过于简单,因为现代化的标志主要是技术成就和西方生活方式,甚至是做作。在这本书中,Yogendra Singh教授打破了这种公式化的表述,转而提出了一种现代化的社会和关系观,其中主要强调的是人们如何相互互动,而不是具有卓越技术设施或外部展示的能力设施。今天,我们可以理解这种方法与将现代化与事物联系起来的缺点的相关性,事实证明,这种方法在不具有误导性的情况下是不够的,因为它对这个主题的理解有偏差。因此,启蒙运动也得到了新的涂层,因为它现在主要围绕知识生成的条件,包括人际关系,而不是科学的成品。因此,一个人可能非常有知识,但在与他人互动时可能仍然很不现代。

Confronting Reflexivity: Sociological Trajectories of Teaching Sociology in Liberal Arts Spaces 面对反身性:文科空间社会学教学的社会学轨迹
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-02-24 DOI: 10.1177/00380229221151082
Brijesh Chandra Tripathi
This article invites the reader to reflect on the practice and teaching of sociology through reflexivity in India in a new emerging space of liberal arts in private universities. These spaces can be considered as the fringe of sociology teaching. I argue that students in private universities grapple with a ‘crisis of relatedness’ regarding sociological discourse, and the debates they study leave them with different questions. I suggest that the understanding of social facts and issues is different and distant from those studying in public universities. The different lived experiences produce different sociological imaginations with the engagement of the same sociological texts. Teaching sociology in liberal arts spaces could mark the emergence of a generation of sociologists in India who have their training rooted in private universities. This new location of sociology students asks us to revisit the ongoing debate of skill-based sociology versus critical sociology that generates new questions for reflexivity and social location of both practitioner and student of sociology.
本文邀请读者在私立大学文科的新兴空间中,通过反思来反思印度社会学的实践和教学。这些空间可以被认为是社会学教学的边缘。我认为,私立大学的学生正在努力应对社会学话语的“关联危机”,他们所研究的辩论给他们留下了不同的问题。我认为,对社会事实和问题的理解与在公立大学学习的人不同,而且相距遥远。不同的生活经历在同一社会学文本的参与下产生了不同的社会学想象。在文科领域教授社会学可能标志着印度一代社会学家的出现,他们的培养植根于私立大学。社会学学生的这个新位置要求我们重新审视正在进行的基于技能的社会学与批判性社会学的辩论,这为社会学从业者和学生的自反性和社会位置产生了新的问题。

On the Foibles of Indian Sociology: Some Suggestions Towards Their Rectification 论印度社会学的缺陷:纠正之道

Evolving a clear conception of Indian society is the primary task of Indian sociologists. This can be achieved by avoiding the conflation of polity and society. Several components of Indian society remain excluded or inadequately analysed. These are Adivasis, Dalits, Dravidians, religious minorities, women, etc. The differentiation between sociology and social/cultural anthropology, an extension of the Euro-American practice, inadequate internalisation of professional values by a section of Indian sociologists, the excessive academic significance attributed to a handful of sociologists, the persistence of the traditional guru–shishya relationships, reluctance on the part of some ‘eminent’ sociologists to accept professional responsibilities, reluctance to undertake analysis of new areas of research and employ new techniques of data collection, resistance to accept criticisms of the ‘nation,’ etc., are some of the major foibles which prevent sociology from flourishing in India.
形成一个清晰的印度社会概念是印度社会学家的首要任务。这可以通过避免将政治和社会混为一谈来实现。印度社会的几个组成部分仍然被排除在外或没有得到充分的分析。这些人包括阿迪瓦西人、达利特人、德拉威人、宗教少数群体、妇女等。社会学和社会/文化人类学之间的差异、欧美实践的延伸、部分印度社会学家对专业价值的内部化不足、少数社会学家的学术意义过高、传统的大师-什什亚关系的持续存在、一些“杰出的”社会学家不愿承担专业责任、不愿意对新的研究领域进行分析,不愿意采用新的数据收集技术,不愿意接受对“国家”的批评,等等,这些都是阻碍社会学在印度蓬勃发展的一些主要缺点。

Negotiating Honour by Jat and Muslim Women in Muzaffarnagar, Western Uttar Pradesh 印度和穆斯林妇女在西北方邦穆扎法尔纳格尔谈判荣誉
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-02-17 DOI: 10.1177/00380229221151076
Astha Mishra, Aparna Rayaprol
In this article, we critically examine honour as a daily cultural code which is pivotal in organising gender relations, and go beyond culture-centric and Eurocentric conceptions of honour. By looking at everyday honour practices of Jat and Muslim women, in Muzaffarnagar, western Uttar Pradesh, we argue against the dominant understanding of honour as a product of religious mannerism and a culturally specific trait. Rather by looking at two religiously different, but agriculturally intertwined communities, we argue that both the communities have an analogous underpinning of honour which is embedded in agrarian ecology. Through empirical evidence, we argue that honour is a regional ethos, embedded and organised around the resource of agrarian land. As anxieties around agriculture and the agrarian way of life are increasing because of agrarian transformation, we see a resurgence of honour in the region. We focus the analytical lens around honour as a negotiated process and argue that women of both communities, in the region are ‘doing’ honour to bargain with patriarchy and negotiate for their upward mobility.
在这篇文章中,我们将荣誉作为一种日常文化规范进行批判性地考察,它在组织性别关系中起着关键作用,并超越了以文化为中心和以欧洲为中心的荣誉概念。通过观察印度北方邦西部穆扎法尔纳格尔的贾特和穆斯林妇女的日常荣誉实践,我们反对将荣誉视为宗教仪式性的产物和文化特有特征的主流理解。相反,通过观察两个宗教不同,但农业相互交织的社区,我们认为这两个社区都有类似的荣誉基础,这植根于农业生态。通过经验证据,我们认为荣誉是一种区域精神,围绕着土地资源进行嵌入和组织。由于农业转型,围绕农业和农业生活方式的焦虑日益增加,我们看到该地区的荣誉复苏。我们将分析的焦点集中在荣誉作为一个谈判过程,并认为该地区两个社区的女性都在“做”荣誉,以与父权制讨价还价,并为自己的向上流动进行谈判。

The Familiar and the Self: Reflections from Teaching Sociology Online in India 熟悉与自我:来自印度在线社会学教学的思考
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-02-17 DOI: 10.1177/00380229221151085

Interrogating the familiar is seen as a benchmark of good sociological research. As teachers of Sociology, we have to teach courses that question and critique the familiar regularly. It is a mammoth task. The enormity of the job is further increased by the fact that the teacher is part of the same social institutions as the students. As such, how does a teacher deal with their own assumptions while teaching? How does one teach young students to question and challenge the familiar that all of us are a part of? How does one teach the self which is a part of the familiar? I try to address some of these questions in this piece drawing from my own teaching experience. It has been my experience that the challenges of teaching the familiar and the self are augmented by the online mode. With the boundaries between the home and the university getting blurred in the online mode, the difficulties in defamiliarizing are even stronger. This challenges the core itself of Sociology. Apart from limiting the interaction between students and the teacher, there is also less scope for peer-based learning in the online classroom. Thus, there is a need to re-think the nature of the online classroom and the teacher that can help Sociology in continuing to question the familiar.
询问熟悉的人被视为良好社会学研究的基准。作为社会学的老师,我们必须定期教授质疑和批判熟悉事物的课程。这是一项艰巨的任务。教师和学生是同一社会机构的一部分,这一事实进一步增加了这项工作的艰巨性。因此,教师在教学时如何处理自己的假设?如何教会年轻学生质疑和挑战我们所有人都熟悉的事物?一个人如何教导作为熟悉事物一部分的自己?在这篇文章中,我试图根据自己的教学经验来解决其中的一些问题。根据我的经验,在线模式增加了教授熟悉和自我的挑战。在网络模式下,家庭和大学之间的界限越来越模糊,陌生化的难度更大。这对社会学的核心本身提出了挑战。除了限制学生和老师之间的互动外,在线课堂中基于同伴的学习空间也较小。因此,有必要重新思考在线课堂的性质,以及可以帮助社会学继续质疑熟悉事物的老师。

Intriguing Capital– Identity Relationship Dalits and Caste in India 有趣的首都——身份关系在印度贱民和种姓
Q2 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-02-12 DOI: 10.1177/00380229221151081
P. Trivedi
The article interrogates the claim that capitalism would replace caste and liberate Dalits. People at the bottom rung of the caste hierarchy are exhorted to support neoliberal capitalism, a crusader against caste. This claim is based on the premise that capitalism abolishes all pre-existing social relations. Dealing with this argument at both empirical and theoretical levels, the article argues that this unilinear understanding of capital’s negotiation with other relationships is ahistorical. Capital does not necessarily abolish non-capitalist social relations but modifies and appropriates them for expansion. Relying on several studies from India, the article points out that interactions between capital and caste have been intriguing, with both entities being altered in the process.
这篇文章质疑资本主义将取代种姓制度并解放贱民的说法。种姓制度最底层的人被敦促支持新自由主义资本主义,这是一个反对种姓的十字军。这一主张的前提是资本主义废除了所有预先存在的社会关系。本文从实证和理论两个层面处理了这一论点,认为这种对资本与其他关系谈判的单线理解是不符合历史的。资本不一定废除非资本主义的社会关系,而是修改和挪用它们进行扩张。根据印度的几项研究,文章指出,资本和种姓之间的互动一直很有趣,在这个过程中,这两个实体都发生了变化。

People at the bottom rung of the caste hierarchy are exhorted to support neoliberal capitalism, a crusader against caste. This claim is based on the premise that capitalism abolishes all pre-existing social relations. Dealing with this argument at both empirical and theoretical levels, the article argues that this unilinear understanding of capital’s negotiation with other relationships is ahistorical.
