This page is dedicated to Anthropologist Pradeep Jeganathan who taught in University of Minnesota and Shiv Nadar University.

His anthropological study and work on Violence in South Asia is highly celebrated and accepted work in anthropology in entire academia. His anthropological essay 'Checkpoint: anthropology, identity, and the state' among the best cited and have high quality reception in academia. Although, he is writing since 1995 and his anthropological essays on the subject of violence and nation state are the notable ones. His chapter and articles are well cited and has been used as sources in other's work. Jstor link is the best to demonstrate this.

His concept of 'Shadow of Violence' is again referenced by many scholars. He is a Sri Lankan scholar and among the first who studied the violence in Sri Lanka as an anthropologist.
