A second generation of emerging Dalit theology texts is re-shaping
the way we think of Indian theology and liberation theology. This
book is a vital part of that conversation. Taking post-colonial
criticism to its logical end of criticism of statism, Keith Hebden
looks at the way the emergence of India as a nation state shapes
political and religious ideas. He takes a critical look at these
Gods of the modern age and asks how Christians from marginalised
communities might resist the temptation to be co-opted into the
statist ideologies and competition for power. He does this by
drawing on historical trends, Christian anarchist voices, and the
religious experiences of indigenous Indians. Hebden's ability to
bring together such different and challenging perspectives opens up
radical new thinking in Dalit theology, inviting the Indian Church
to resist the Hindu fundamentalists labelling of the Church as
foreign by embracing and celebrating the anarchic foreignness of a
Dalit Christian future.
