If politics is a site of competing and conflicting claims, being political is not a choice. It바카라™s temperament, it바카라™s being human. It바카라™s navigating in the daily world. A political citizen does not necessarily aspire for a place in politics; she only tries to secure the autonomy of her actions and independence of her life.
Politics pervades every sphere of contemporary life. An adjustment in monetary policy by hiking interest rates is also a political tool to curb inflation and address people바카라™s grievances. A promise of free ration is an unmistakable election manifesto. The awards for translated books come with a distinct politics. And most recently, the 바카라˜Agnipath protests바카라™ are not merely against a proposed scheme. It's a political statement by India바카라™s youth, a reflection of the unalloyed anger brewing in the younger generation, a repressed sentiment that bursts forth with the slightest provocation.
At Overlap, we turn the political lens to both the marvellous as well as the mundane, and look at various intersections and divergences that may appear to emerge from distant aspects of life but are innately political in character.
