About The Book:
Subhash Gatade focuses on the right wing thrust in Indian polity during the first decade of the 21st century. His writings show that the ultra-right and Hindu nationalist political formations may have temporarily lost out in the race to retain governmental power at the Centre and may appear in disarray, but the agenda of the RSS sponsored Hindutva project for the Hindu rashtra is very much in the reckoning and enjoys widespread State complicity. The impact of
neo-liberalism and majoritarianism and their consequences for democracy and human rights are meticulously documented. Above all, he shows what happens when dreams are deferred. No concerned citizen or student of contemporary India can afford to miss reading this book
The essays in this book are organized in three sections:
1. Saffronization and the Neoliberal State
2. Logic of Caste in New India
3. State and Human Rights
Subhash Gatade is a well-known journalist, left-wing thinker and human rights activist. He edits Sandhan, a Hindi journal, and is author of 'Pahad Se Uncha Admi', a book on Dasrath Majhi for children, and 'Nathuram Godse’s Heirs: The Menace of Terrorism in India' |
