About the session: Wokeness as a cultural and political phenomenon has engulfed the academic spaces of the West, and now poses a serious challenge to the larger political spheres as well. With the advent of the post-modernist school of thought, a rapid spread of woke culture has been witnessed. In this backdrop, it becomes imperative to examine its intellectual history and origins and chalk out its theoretical underpinnings. This session shall be one such attempt in this direction.
