Abstract

This special issue explores what theory looks like from the Global South. Whether it is in the work of the women farmers organized into Sanghams under the umbrella of the Deccan Development Society (DDS) or in the organizing of farmers under the collective formations of La Via Campesina, the emergent work of theory is intrinsically tied to plural practices embedded in community life. We argue that we need to theorize from the narratives embedded in experiences of actors who are disenfranchised from metropolitan/mainstream/Euro-US/neoliberal economics and society. We mark the local politics of the Global South at the intersections of the local and global forces as sites of knowledge in this special issue.

来自全球南方的理论化:传播理论的拆解、抵制和转型

本期特刊探讨了全球发展中国家的理论。无论是在德干发展协会(DDS)的保护下组织成Sanghams的女农民的工作，还是在La Via Campesina的集体组织下组织农民的工作，理论的新兴工作都与社区生活中嵌入的多元实践有着内在的联系。我们认为，我们需要从被大都市/主流/欧美/新自由主义经济和社会剥夺权利的行动者的经验中嵌入的叙述中进行理论化。在本期特刊中，我们将全球南方的地方政治标记为地方和全球力量的交叉点，作为知识的场所。
