OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
This presentation explores the journey of researchers in International Relations based in India as they transfer the knowledge of their local realities into the global pool of knowledges. In this journey, they engage with coloniality embedded within social sciences that create divisions between universal and particular knowledge. They also navigate through the asymmetries of global science that magnify voices emerging from the global North. In this journey, they engage with the varied local dynamics of knowledge production. Drawn from sixteen in-depth interviews conducted with researchers in India, the presentation offers a novel analysis of the global research landscape from the perspectives of these scholars situated at the ‘borders’ of the system.
