Abstract: from a postcolonial perspective, this paper analyzes the place reached by india during the late twentieth century, re-defining its role on the world stage as a modern economic force through information technology. popular representations of science, media and technology, serve as a way to understand the overlaps between culture, history and economics, and the mutually constitutive assemblies between subjectivity and technology. the article proposes that the old politics of caste, class, gender and national identity are re-imagined in the "new" digital era.
