This important volume provides a clear, concise and comprehensive
guide to the history of Sikh nationalism from the late nineteenth
century to the present. Drawing on A. D. Smith's ethno-symbolic
approach, Gurharpal Singh and Giorgio Shani use a new integrated
methodology to understanding the historical and sociological
development of modern Sikh nationalism. By emphasising the
importance of studying Sikh nationalism from the perspective of the
nation-building projects of India and Pakistan, the recent
literature on religious nationalism and the need to integrate the
study of the diaspora with the Sikhs in South Asia, they provide a
fresh approach to a complex subject. Singh and Shani evaluate the
current condition of Sikh nationalism in a globalised world and
consider the lessons the Sikh case offers for the comparative study
of ethnicity, nations and nationalism.
