这篇社论介绍了本期《当代南亚》特别会议上的论文，并将它们置于2010年3月在华威大学举行的第24届英国南亚研究协会（BASAS）年会的背景下。会议的主题是“想象的风景”，本期特刊中的论文从方法论、主题和区域传播方面反映了这一主题的一系列方法。然而，尽管它们的多样性，这些论文确实反映了一种共同的关注，即对南亚现代性的单一、毫无疑问和统一的经验提出质疑。
This Editorial introduces the papers in this special conference issue of Contemporary South Asia, placing them in the context of the 24th British Association for South Asian Studies (BASAS) annual conference, held at the University of Warwick in March 2010. The conference theme was ‘Landscapes of the imagination’, and the papers in this Special Issue reflect a range of approaches to this theme, in terms of methodology, topic and regional spread. Despite their diversity, however, the papers do reflect a common concern to contest a singular, unproblematic and unified experience of South Asian modernity.
