SynopsisThis work offers a broad survey of India's search for political identity in the context of a culture marked by strong conflicting socio-religious traditions. The books also surveys the historical development of India from earliest times through British colonialism to the present. Among the discussions are a comparison of Indian historical development with that of China; a view of the development of Indian civilization and political culture in terms of the socio-religious conflicts and traditions of Hindus and Moslems; and coverage of the politicization of religion and communalization of politics in the current era which pits Moslems against Hindus, challenging the unity and secular nature of the Indian state., Now revised and updated to encompass developments through the end of the twentieth century, this balanced and highly readable work provides a revealing perspective on India's complex history and society.
