The book examines the postcolonial Muslim political discourse
through monuments. It establishes a link between the process by
which historic buildings become monuments and the gradual
transformation of these historic/legal entities into political
objects. The author studies the multiple interpretations of
Indo-Islamic historical buildings as 'political sites' as well as
emerging Muslim religiosities and the internal configurations of
Muslim politics in India. He also looks at the modes by which a
memory of a royal Muslim past is articulated for political
mobilisation. Raising critical questions such as whether Muslim
responses to political questions are homogenous, the book will
greatly interest researchers and students of political science,
modern Indian history, sociology, as well as the general reader
interested in contemporary India.
