This spiritual undivided continuity is often prioritized in nationalist constructs, which gloss over through tact and coercion the many sites of oppositions, ambiguities, and fissures that may arise from its numerous constituencies. This paper examines how the question of nationalism is questioned by the burgeoning cultural form of &lsquo;stand up comedy&rsquo; in India. It first undertakes an overview of the theoretical interventions in understanding jokes and its relationship to the comic from within the literary and the psychoanalytic schools of thought. It then brings in the elements of materiality and the model of Eric Berne&rsquo;s transaction analysis (the parent, adult and child) to understand how jokes work within a performance set-up. Next, the article takes up two leading stand up comedies of India, Kunal Kamra and Rahul Subramanian, and analyses two acts from their repertoire that raise the question of nationalism and patriotism using the tools that have been previously laid out. In conclusion, it reveals how resistance against totalitarian nationalist narratives and ideologies are emerging out of unlikely cultural sites, and how the material condition of its dissemination are making these resistances possible.</p></dct:description> <dct:accessRights rdf:resource="http://publications.europa.eu/resource/authority/access-right/PUBLIC"/> <dct:accessRights> <dct:RightsStatement rdf:about="info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess"> <rdfs:label>Open Access</rdfs:label> </dct:RightsStatement> </dct:accessRights> <dct:license rdf:resource="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode"/> <dcat:distribution> <dcat:Distribution> <dcat:accessURL rdf:resource="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.2567086"/> <dcat:byteSize>687901</dcat:byteSize> <dcat:downloadURL rdf:resource="https://zenodo.org/record/2567086/files/Stand up comedy paper.pdf"/> <dcat:mediaType>application/pdf</dcat:mediaType> </dcat:Distribution> </dcat:distribution> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF>
