Dr. Rose Sebastian’s postdoctoral project proposes to analyze the national science museums in independent India as sites of display and dissemination of a distinctively postcolonial policy and culture of science. This interdisciplinary project aspires to bring together the analytical approaches of Cultural Studies and Science and Technology Studies (STS). It extends the concepts of postcolonial hybridity and ambivalence to cultures of science, and analyzes the co-production of the technoscientific and the political in postcolonial India from an STS framework.
