7367512Being Hindu: A Political History from Aditya Chola to Narendra Modihttps://www.gandhi.com.mx/being-hindu--a-political-history-from-aditya-chola-to-narendra-modi-9789365471922/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6956911/image.jpg?v=6387694549248000002020MXNGandhiInStock/Ebooks/<p>Being Hindu adopts a longue durée view of history and attempts to contextualize the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its progenitor, the Bharatiya Jana Sangh (BJS), as political phenomena by examining certain medieval state structures and instances of advocacy and popular mobilization in the colonial period. Further, it studies the politics of Narendra Modi and the policy initiatives undertaken by him as the prime minister of India to highlight their apparent cultural and moral underpinnings. Its eventual objective is to make a case for the historical authenticity of the Hindu mode of politics that emerged in post-Independence India. The attempt, in other words, is to demonstrate that it is a thing in its own right and not a cynical invention of hostility towards religious minorities, an irrational or fascist mindset, or sundry anxieties, but has precedents in frameworks and practices going rather far back in history. The BJS and the BJP are thus shown to be locatable in a long tradition of Hindus organizing their political practice or politics through cultural resources and a cultural imagination distinctive to them. Narendra Modi, similarly, brings an inclusive Hindu catholicity and sangathanist outlook to his politics and developmental agenda. Being Hindu, in this way, relates a brief history of the political expressions of being Hindu over slightly more than eleven centuries from the ascension of Aditya I, the first of the imperial Cholas, in 870 CE until our own time and age.</p>...7003084Being Hindu: A Political History from Aditya Chola to Narendra Modi2020https://www.gandhi.com.mx/being-hindu--a-political-history-from-aditya-chola-to-narendra-modi-9789365471922/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6956911/image.jpg?v=638769454924800000InStockMXN99999DIEbook2024Inglés
