This book provides a critical investigation into Sikh and Muslim
conflict in the postcolonial setting. Being Sikh in a diasporic
context creates challenges that require complex negotiations
between other ethnic minorities as well as the national majority.
Unsettling Sikh and Muslim Conflict: Mistaken Identities, Forced
Conversions, and Postcolonial Formations maps in theoretically
informed and empirically rich detail the trope of Sikh-Muslim
antagonism as it circulates throughout the diaspora. While focusing
on contemporary manifestations of Sikh-Muslim hostility, the book
also draws upon historical examples of such conflict to explore the
way in which the past has been mobilized to tell a story about the
future of Sikhs. This book uses critical race theory to understand
the performance of postcolonial subjectivity in the heart of the
metropolis.
