Neo-Hindutva explores the recent proliferation and evolution of
Hindu nationalism - the assertive majoritarian, right-wing ideology
that is transforming contemporary India. This volume develops and
expands on the idea of 'neo-Hindutva' -- Hindu nationalist ideology
which is evolving and shifting in new, surprising, and significant
ways, requiring a reassessment and reframing of prevailing
understandings. The contributors identify and explain the ways in
which Hindu nationalism increasingly permeates into new spaces:
organisational, territorial, conceptual, rhetorical. The scope of
the chapters reflect the diversity of contemporary Hindutva - both
in India and beyond - which appears simultaneously brazen but
concealed, nebulous and mainstreamed, militant yet normalised. They
cover a wide range of topics and places in which one can locate new
forms of Hindu nationalism: courts of law, the Northeast, the
diaspora, Adivasi (tribal) communities, a powerful yoga guru, and
the Internet. The volume also includes an in-depth interview with
Christophe Jaffrelot and a postscript by Deepa Reddy. Helping
readers to make sense of contemporary Hindutva, Neo-Hindutva is
ideal for scholars of India, Hinduism, Nationalism, and Asian
Studies more generally. This book was originally published as a
special issue of Contemporary South Asia.
