The book examines the political use of the past in post-colonial India. It shows how past ‘injustices’ are used to justify current violations of human rights.
The book examines the political use of the past in post-colonial India. It shows how past “injustices” are used to justify current violations of human rights. It shows how the recent and increased reappraisal of European colonial rule and post-colonial theory formation are introducing further confrontations into the struggles over memory, and with advancing globalization, they are beginning to dominate international as well as national politics. It also looks at textbook controversies in India as well as debates about the necessity of historiography to be decolonized. The volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of South Asian studies, politics, history and postcolonial studies.
