This article outlines the philosophy, methodology, and aims of Feminist Critical Hindu Studies (FCHS). We propose a series of strategies and commitments for change and action in the fields of South Asian Religions, Hindu Studies, and South Asian Studies. We draw on the work of scholars in Queer, Critical Race, and Feminist theories. We argue for a queering methodology that disorients us from and seeks to make visible the structures of knowledge and power on which Hinduism and Hindu Studies rest, including the intersecting processes of racialization, the regulation of sexuality and gender, and the violence of caste. We use the concept of Hindu formations to complicate the notions of “Hinduism” and “Hindus” as categories that not only arise in conjunction with forms of white supremacy and caste supremacy, but are imbricated with them. This approach allows us to explore how these categories have been used by various groups throughout history to empower and subjugate people. Driven by the theoretical frameworks of disorientation, intersectionality, and assemblage, FCHS reorients us in our relationship to Hindu Studies, as well as the spaces, practices, and people that inhabit academic institutions, newly attentive to who and what is missing. The work of FCHS is both academic and activist in nature: we call for ethical commitments to build meaningful relations of solidarity and allyship. Working against systemic oppression requires a willingness to interrogate our own positionalities and challenge our complicities.

女性主义批判印度教研究的形成

本文概述了女性主义印度教批评研究(FCHS)的理念,方法和目标。我们提出了一系列有关南亚宗教,印度教和南亚研究领域的变革与行动的战略和承诺。我们借鉴了酷儿,批判种族和女性主义理论的学者的著作。我们主张一种奇特的方法论,使我们与印度教和印度教所依赖的知识和权力结构相混淆,并力求使之清晰可见,包括种族化,性别与性别的调节以及种姓暴力的相交过程。我们使用印度教形式的概念来使“印度教”和“印度教”的概念复杂化,这些类别不仅与白人至上和种姓至上的形式结合出现,而且与它们联系在一起。这种方法使我们能够探索历史上各个群体如何使用这些类别来赋权和征服人们。在迷失方向,交叉性和集合性的理论框架的驱使下,FCHS使我们重新定位了与印度教研究的关系,以及在学术机构中居住的空间,实践和人员的关系,这些人最近都在关注谁和什么丢失了。FCHS的工作本质上既是学术活动,也是激进主义者:我们呼吁在道德上作出承诺,以建立有意义的团结与盟友关系。对抗系统性的压迫需要愿意询问我们自己的立场并挑战我们的同谋。在迷失方向,交叉性和集合性的理论框架的驱使下,FCHS使我们重新定位了与印度教研究的关系,以及在学术机构中居住的空间,实践和人员的关系,这些人最近都在关注谁和什么丢失了。FCHS的工作本质上既是学术活动,也是激进主义者:我们呼吁在道德上作出承诺,以建立有意义的团结与盟友关系。对抗系统性的压迫需要愿意询问我们自己的立场并挑战我们的同谋。在迷失方向,交叉性和集合性的理论框架的驱使下,FCHS使我们重新定位了与印度教研究的关系,以及在学术机构中居住的空间,实践和人员的关系,这些人最近都在关注谁和什么丢失了。FCHS的工作本质上既是学术活动,也是激进主义者:我们呼吁在道德上作出承诺,以建立有意义的团结与盟友关系。对抗系统性的压迫需要愿意询问我们自己的立场并挑战我们的同谋。我们呼吁作出道德承诺,以建立有意义的团结与盟友关系。对抗系统性的压迫需要愿意询问我们自己的立场并挑战我们的同谋。我们呼吁作出道德承诺,以建立有意义的团结与盟友关系。对抗系统性的压迫需要愿意询问我们自己的立场并挑战我们的同谋。
