"Kashmiri Futures," a special issue of English Language Notes edited by Dr. Deepti Misri, Dr. Mohamad Junaid, and Dr. Ather Zia is available now.
This special issue inaugurates a scholarly and creative conversation that seeks to detach the future of Kashmir from the narrative, aesthetic, and political frames of powerful nation-states that have sought to keep Kashmiris confined to a long and seemingly enduring colonial present. It seeks, moreover, to inspire radical imaginations of possible futures in danger of foreclosure by occupying states, and asks us to think about occupation as a temporal as well as spatial regime.
