About the Author:

Jacob Copeman is Distinguished Researcher (Oportunius) at the University of Santiago de Compostela. His most recent textbook, co-authored with Dwaipayan Banerjee, is Hematologies: The Political Life of Blood in India (Cornell University Press 2019). He is PI of the ERC-funded project 'Religion and Others in South Asia and the World: Communities, Debates, Freedoms'. His research was also funded by the UK Economic and Social Research Council, the Leverhulme Trust and the British Academy.

About the project: 

It examines the ways in which individuals and communities raise, in the open or in more hidden transcripts, questions about the dominant religious norms in South Asia. Although this project is ethnographically based in South Asia, it also reaches beyond this region to examine the global implications of critical debates and actions taking place there.
