Abstract
In this article, we provide a critical overview of the theoretical and methodological applicability of intersectional frameworks in transnational research. These critiques have two important implications. First, as intersectionality has been critiqued for being U.S centric, it calls for intersectional scholars to embrace transnational social locations and positionalities; and second, to re-envision methodological approaches to capture the complex and multi-layered experiences in transnational spaces. Drawing on the Women Living Hinduism and Islam Project, we argue that while an intersectional lens is useful to examine transnational dynamics, it is essential to adopt a decolonial approach to research design to allow for intersectionality to be more inclusive of non-western epistemologies and methodologies.
