As the <a href=\"https:\/\/habib.edu.pk\/\">best university in Pakistan<\/a>, Habib University\u2019s commitment to intellectual discourse and global engagement shone through in hosting such a profound thinker.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Ashis Nandy spoke about the intellectual failures in regards to postcolonialism, particularly how it appears as a racialized project that we have blindly internalized. People\u2019s views are adopted and shaped by Western intellectual canons, he argued, which robs them off their autonomy. This, he said, is even the case with postcolonial studies.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Ashis Nandy identified a number of distinctive features of modern colonialism, especially the colonialism that came after the Spanish empire which was solely interested in looting, and was not racial in character. With the British and French empires, the conquest of indigenous peoples was justified in the name of a selfless moral duty, also famously referred to as the White Man\u2019s Burden. The Enlightenment, he argued, was racist and closely linked to the so-called \u201ccivilizing mission\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The coexistence of different sacred cosmologies with science was possible in our part of the world, but not in the Western hemisphere, which was totalitarian, he remarked.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/habib.edu.pk\/HU-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7829\" src=\"https:\/\/habib.edu.pk\/HU-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/2-620x347.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"710\" height=\"397\" srcset=\"https:\/\/habib.edu.pk\/HU-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/2-620x347.png 620w, https:\/\/habib.edu.pk\/HU-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/2-940x527.png 940w, https:\/\/habib.edu.pk\/HU-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/2-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/habib.edu.pk\/HU-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/2-768x430.png 768w, https:\/\/habib.edu.pk\/HU-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/2.png 1005w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/>Dr. Ashis Nandy<\/a>\u00a0lamented the fact that modern colonialism has not been examined seriously by postcolonial scholars. He spoke in-depth about the distinctiveness of the modern nation-state. \u201cThe nation-state,\u201d he pointed out, \u201cis not given to us by birth. Nationalism is an ideology, which demands an exclusive allegiance to your state. Nationalism demands that you adopt your state\u2019s enemies as your own enemies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Ashis Nandy concluded his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=TTNXAGILFNA\">7<sup>th<\/sup> YOHSIN LECTURE<\/a> by warning the audience of the social ills of accepting the nation-state at the cost of culture, language, ethnicity and identity. Alluding to recent state-transformative efforts in our region, he said, \u201cConfiguring a different kind of state will portend a dark future for countries in South Asia if we are not careful.\u201d<\/p>\n<h1 style=\"text-align: center;\">Some Key Highlights of 7th Yohsin Lecture<\/h1>\n<p><a
