I Am We
I Am We is a two-way book of twenty short stories, split into 10 pairs, wherein each half of a pair is presented on either half of the book. Each title has a corresponding "mate" on the other side. The reader is therefore presented with ten individual stories, which are told in two entirely different ways. One half of the book represents the individual, and paints its stories within a surreal dreamscape, while the other half of the book symbolizes the collective and presents its stories in hard reality. From birth to friendship, love, ambition, prejudice, spirituality and the afterlife, I Am We traces the journey an individual takes in life, and contrasts it through the twin perspectives of fantasy and reality.
Guru English
Guru English is a bold reconceptualization of the scope and meaning of cosmopolitanism, examining the language of South Asian religiosity as it has flourished both inside and outside of its original context for the past two hundred years. The book surveys a specific set of religious vocabularies from South Asia that, Aravamudan argues, launches a different kind of cosmopolitanism into global use.

The book demonstrates that cosmopolitanism...

Beyond Habermas
During the 1960s the German philosopher Jürgen Habermas introduced the notion of a "bourgeois public sphere" in order to describe the symbolic arena of political life and conversation that originated with the cultural institutions of the early eighteenth-century; since then the "public sphere" itself has become perhaps one of the most debated concepts at the very heart of modernity. For Habermas, the tension between the administrative power of the state, with its understanding of sovereignty, and the emerging institutions of the bourgeoisie--coffee houses, periodicals, encyclopedias, literary culture, etc.--was seen as being mediated by the public sphere, making it a symbolic site of public reasoning. This volume examines whether the "public sphere" remains a central explanatory model in the social sciences, political theory, and the humanities.
