Exploring lived atheism in the South Indian states of Andhra
Pradesh and Telangana, this book offers a unique insight into
India's rapidly transforming multi-religious society. It explores
the social, cultural, and aesthetic challenges faced by a movement
of secular activists in their endeavors to establish atheism as a
practical and comprehensive way of life. On the basis of original
ethnographic material and engaged conceptual analysis, Total
Atheism develops an alternative to Eurocentric accounts of
secularity and critically revisits central themes of South Asian
scholarship from the hitherto marginalized vantage point of
radically secular and explicitly irreligious atheists in India.
