The Nature of the Complaint: In the C ourt of the Goddess in South India
In his\nfinal work\, Maurice Merleau-Ponty\ndevelops the image of a chiasm or fold\, through which we a nd the world are\nintertwined in a carnal embrace. Based on ethnographic w ork in Tamil Nadu\, Ram\nargues that this vision gives us a way of underst anding deep seated notions of\njustice that underlie the complaints of suf fering brought to the goddess\,\nparticularly by women. While not denying the need for multiple visions of\njustice\, this presentation will reverse the usual direction of questions and\nask: how does the justice meted out by the goddess help us address the blind\nspots in modern political tradi tions?
Open to the public.
Sponsored by the South Asia Center at the Moynihan Institute of Global Affairs\, Department of Anthrop ology\, and Women&\;amp\;#39\;s and Gender Studies.
