Karl Marx in Kalbadevi

Release of ASM Journal Volume 92

We are happy to share with you that on 26 th November 2024, on the occasion of the 220 th Foundation Day of the Asiatic, the Society has released Volume 92 of the ASM Journal. This is the latest volume of the journal released by the Society. The editors of the journal are Professor Madhu Kelkar and Professor Usha R Vijailakshmi. It has come to the Society's notice that some unscrupulous elements are collecting money for publishing papers in the Society's Journal and are offering bogus certificates. Some of the candidates had mailed these certificates to the Society. These certificates carry the names of the editors of previous volumes. The Asiatic Society does not collect money for publishing research papers in its journal, nor does it guarantee publication, and most importantly it does not issue any certificate. Authors must verify with the Society before submitting any papers, and papers will be published only after rigorous peer review and editing. The Society does not take responsibility for any payments made to third parties claiming to represent the Society, or for their papers appearing in a cloned/spam journal. Ours is a print-only journal. We do not publish the journal online.

Karl Marx in Kalbadevi (Synopsis)
In this interactive performance, 'Karl Marx' arrives in present day Kalbadevi, Mumbai, India, after 150 years of his death, with the intention of clearing his name of all false allegations against him as a ‘Marxist.’
His observation on the politics, population and prevalent situation in India leave him flustered, reminiscing of Gandhi while he takes us through his life in SoHo with his wife Jenny and his children. the ones who survived and those who didn’t. He insists that he isn’t here to entertain you, and yet he uses all tropes to keep you listening.
Entertaining, informative, hard hitting. This performance will comfort the disturbed and disturb the ones safely ensconced in their comfort zone.
