Organized and edited by Frank Morales (University of Wisconsin-Madison),
this proposed anthology will include papers by leading scholars and
professors who specialize in many fields of South Asian Studies. These
fields include: Religious Studies, Philosophy, History, Literature,
Political Science, Languages, Indigenous Sciences, Anthropology, Geology,
Psychology, Medical Sciences, Sociology, etc.

The focus of the book will be on new approaches, epistemological issues and
methodological developments that will encourage a shift in South Asian
Studies away from a neo-colonialist perspective and towards a perspective
that is more sympathetic to the indigenous Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh and Jain
cultures of South Asia. Additionally, we are especially seeking papers
that critique the last 200 years of Indology/South Asian Studies, either on
specific points or more generally. Papers must strictly fit these criteria
to be considered for inclusion.
