The country's guiding spirit was formerly a fusion of the anti-caste worldview of B.R. Ambedkar; the inclusive Hinduism of Mahatma Gandhi; and the agnostic secularism of Jawaharlal Nehru. Today, that fusion has given way to Hindutva. This now-dominant version of Hinduism blends the militant nationalism of V.D. Savarkar; the Brahmanical anti-minorityism of M.S. Golwalkar; and the global Islamophobia of India's ruling regime. It requires deep cultural analysis and historical understanding, as only the sharpest and most profoundly informed historian can provide. For two decades, Tanika Sarkar has forged a path through the alleys and byways of Hindutva. She has trawled through the writing and iconography of its organisations and institutions, including RSS schools and VHP temples. She has visited the offices and homes of Hindutva's votaries, interviewing men and women who believe fervently in their mission of Hinduising India. And she has contextualised this new ferment on the ground with her formidable archival knowledge of Hindutva's origins and development over 150 years, from Bankimchandra to the Babri mosque and beyond. This riveting book connects Hindu religious nationalism with the cultural politics of everyday India. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 00 $g p. 214. $t Hinduism, Hindu Nation, and History $g p. 16 -- $g 2 $t The Woman as Communal Subject: The Rashtrasevika Samiti and the Ram Janmabhoomi Movement $g p. 63 -- $g 3 $t Pragmatics of the Hindu Right: The Politics of Women's Organisations $g p. 92 -- $g 4 $t Love in the Time of Hindutva $g p. 130 -- $g 5 $t Educating the Children of the Hindu Rashtra: Notes on RSS Schools $g p. 143 -- $g 6 $t Problems of Social Power in the Discourses of the Hindu Right $g p. 158 -- $g 7 $t Historical Pedagogy and Historical Common Sense: Hindutva's Public and Professional Histories $g p. 179 -- $g 8 $t Hinduism, Hindu Nation, and History $g p. 214. 648 7 $a Since 1977 $2 fast 650 0 $a Hindus $z India $x Politics and government. 650 0 $a Hinduism and politics $z India. 650 0 $a Hinduism and state $z India. 650 0 $a Identification (Religion) $x History. $z India $x History. 650 7 $a Hinduism and politics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00957168 650 7 $a Hinduism and state. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00957172 650 7 $a Hindus $x Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00957182 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 651 0 $a India $x Politics and government $y 1977- 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117030525.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8F23E680664511EDB99D19AA23ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
