New Books in South Asian Studies

Pakistan, Populism and the Left


Listen Later

This podcast features Ammar Rashid, a leading figure in left-wing politics in Pakistan, and currently Director of the action-research organization Alliance for Urban Rights, and Research Lead at the public health think tank, Heartfile. This episode of Radio ReOrient is hosted by Sher Ali Tareen with Shehla Khan and Salman Sayyid. The conversation explores the lengthening political crisis in Pakistan by foregrounding the potential for resistance. In this vein, it ranges across several salient themes, notably the genealogy of prevalent political divisions, the current state of the Left, the prospects of coalition building, the nexus between Islamophobia and support for junta rule, and the contested notion of populism.
