Talks:
Sat 22 May 2004.
South Asianness: new nationality or convenient catch all?
The term has achieved wide currency today – often for the sake of political expedience – but it is hotly disputed within the diaspora as well as the regions themselves. Is 'South Asianness' a diverse and resilient state of being or just 'Indianness' in disguise? Sunil Khilnani (author of The Idea of India) headlines a one-day symposium examining the origin, development and relevance of the term. With Yasmin Alibhai-Brown, the Independent; Jeevan Singh Deol, St John's College, Cambridge; Andree Grau, Roehampton Institute; Shobana Jeyasingh, Shobana Jeyasingh Dance Company; Keith Khan Moti Roti; Pavan Varma Nehru Centre; Parminder Vir, Carlton TV; Sanjoy Roy, the Guardian; Sanjay Sharma University of East London.
