The Notion of the “Subaltern” and the Drone Victim Subjectivities in Pakistani Anglophone Fiction
This research proposes a new approach to study fictional representation of drone victims in contemporary Anglophone Pakistani novels by examining the inevitable onto-epistemological relation between the notion of the “subaltern” and its possible implications for fictional drone subjectivities. By drawing insights from the newly emerging drone fiction literary theory and re-examining the already well-established tradition of Subaltern Studies, I d…

The posthuman feminist field of research is one of the many emergent thematic discourses of existent posthumanisms. Posthuman feminist notions have almost always been the subject of discussion in Western academia. However, we intend to analyze the posthuman feminist discourse of a Pakistani technical…
