It engages with the oft-neglected idea of civility (as a Western concept), to explore the paradox of high democracy and low civility that plagues India. This concept helps analyse why democratic consolidation translates into limited justice and minimal equality, along with increased exclusion and performative violence against marginal groups in India. The volume brings together key themes such as minority citizens and the incivility of caste, civility and urbanity. the struggles for 'dignity' and equality pursued by subaltern groups along with feminism and queer politics, and the exclusionary politics of the Citizenship Amendment Act, to argue that civility provides crucial insights into the functioning and social life of a democracy. In doing so, the book illustrates how a successful democracy may also harbour illiberal values and normalised violence, and civil societies may have uncivil tendencies. Enriched with case studies from various states in India, this book will be of interest to scholars and researchers of political science, political philosophy, South Asian studies, minority and exclusion studies, political sociology, and social anthropology"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Human rights $z India. 650 0 $a Marginality, Social $x Political aspects $z India. 650 0 $a Caste $x Political aspects $z India. 650 0 $a Social integration $z India. 650 0 $a Equality $z India. 650 7 $a Caste $x Political aspects $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00848400 650 7 $a Equality $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00914456 650 7 $a Human rights $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963285 650 7 $a Marginality, Social $x Political aspects $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01009164 650 7 $a Social integration $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122550 651 7 $a India $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 700 1 $a Waghmore, Suryakant, $e editor. 700 1 $a Gorringe, Hugo, $d 1975- $e editor. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Civility in crisis $b First Edition. $d New York : Taylor & Francis Group, 2020. $z 9781003089810 $w (DLC) 2020039859 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526015207.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8EB45E32323411EC8B1165C359ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
