This book explores radical challenges to Indian governments'
legitimacy and power and the responses of the Indian state and
central governments to those challenges. Dr. Calman describes the
unintended role Indian governments have played in fostering the
emergence of radical movements and analyzes the effectiveness of
governments in combating their growth. Light is shed on the power
of newly developing decentralized movements to politicize
impoverished groups and ultimately to challenge the legitimacy of
the Indian mode of governing. These new movements, represented in
this book by Shramik Sanghatana and Bhoomi Sena of Maharashtra,
have more power to effect change than movements that attack the
military force of government, like the Naxalites of Srikakulam
District, Andhra Pradesh. The book draws upon government documents,
a variety of unpublished sources, and extensive interviews with
government officials and key participants in radical groups.
