| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | The terrain of history, culture and secularity remains bitterly contested in contemporary India as it was during the anti-colonial struggle. Few have written on these themes with greater insight and involvement than KN Panikkar, eminent historian and public intellectual.<br/><br/>This valuable collection of essays by KN Panikkar chronicles contemporary South Asia as it has unfolded in the last three decades. His being a historian of modern India has lent to his analysis of contemporary concerns a unique vantage point not available in most commentaries of contemporary South Asia.<br/><br/>The author focuses on the alliance between the neo-liberal policies and Hindu fundamentalism in India, and the vicissitudes of politics in all of South Asia, particularly the rights of minorities and the linkages between religious fundamentalism and the erosion of democracy. He gives special attention to the historical context of the Hindu right wing cultural project and outlines the agenda for struggle against the corrosive influence of this home grown fascism. |
