SCI Visiting Researcher: Professor Nivedita Menon
As part of our Visiting Researcher scheme, we are excited to announce that we are collaborating with 番茄视频’s South Asia Centre to host Professor Nivedita Menon (Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi) at the University of 番茄视频 from 25 - 28 February.
As part of her visit to 番茄视频, she will deliver two keynote lectures that draw on her recent book Secularism as Misdirection: Critical Thought from the Global South (2024). Her other books include the acclaimed Seeing Like a Feminist (2012) and Recovering Subversion: Feminist Politics Beyond the Law (2004). Prof Menon’s interdisciplinary, multi-lingual, critical research and public interventions have significantly enriched intersectional feminist scholarship and activism.
Professor Menon will also be leading two PGR events:
The Republic at 75: A Conversation on India with Kalathmika Natarajan and Shubranshu (Co-Directors, South Asia Centre)
- Tuesday 25 February, 14:30
- SR 12 Sara & Nigel Tozzi Seminar Room, Forum, Streatham
Conversation on South Asian Studies with Sajjad Rizvi (Director of Global & Area Studies)
