This book examines how identities are formed and expressed in
political, social and cultural contexts across South Asia. It is a
comprehensive intervention on how, why and what identities have
come to be, and takes a closer look at the complexities of their
interactions. Drawing on an interdisciplinary approach, combining
methodologies from history, literary studies, politics, and
sociology, this book: * Explores the multiple ways in which
personal and collective identities manifest and engage, are
challenged and resisted across time and space.; * Highlights how
the shared history of colonialism and partition, communal violence,
bloodshed and pogrom are instrumental in understanding present-day
developments in identity politics.; * Sheds light on a number of
current themes such as borders and nations, race and ethnicity,
identity politics and fundamentalism, language and regionalism,
memory and community, and resistance and assertion. A key volume in
South Asian Studies, this book will be of great interest to
scholars and researchers of modern South Asian history, politics,
sociology, literary studies and social exclusion.
