Book Synopsis Indian Politics & Our Thought by : Rajnath Singh
Download or read book Indian Politics & Our Thought written by Rajnath Singh and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BJP is a political party rich in distinct ideology possessing an army of committed and dedicated workers. Added to this is a succession of capable; industrious and talented leaders. Our collective endeavour would accelerate the process of development and instill probity in public life. On being returned to power; our commitment would be to establish Su-Raj (good governance). --- A negligent and lethargic attitude about casting one’s vote; despite having the capacity and facility to do so; in principle not only weakens the democracy but in practice also paves the way for unhealthy elements getting into the polity which in turn is detrimental to the health of democracy. Voters should also bear in mind that they not only form the government by casting their vote but also indirectly pave the way for someone to form the government by not exercising their franchise. --- The entire nation is looking at us to find answers to these challenges. If the BJP fails to respond to these challenges; then rest assured; no other political party will have a solution for them. If by galvanizing our organizational powers we are successful in this election; respond to all these challenges and take the country out of these crises; then we will be considered as architects of history in the years to come. —From this book Collection of speeches of BJP President Shri Rajnath Singh which reflect the basic ethics and characteristics of this nationalist party and emphasis on the motto of ‘Nation First’.
Book Synopsis Perspectives on Violence and Othering in India by : R.C. Tripathi
Download or read book Perspectives on Violence and Othering in India written by R.C. Tripathi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-10-21 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together important and original perspectives from South Asia on the relationship between violence---an increasingly important issue in multicultural societies---and the process of othering. The contributors state that societies create 'others' through deliberate acts of selection over a period of time. The objective of the process of othering is to deny rights and privileges that one sets for one's own group. This volume affirms that central to the understanding of violence in any society is the understanding of othering processes. Violence and nonviolence are influenced by the nature of othering processes as well as the kinds of others in a society. Groups engaged in mutual othering are also the ones that are often involved in violent relationships. Renowned scholars from diverse fields provide multidisciplinary perspectives on violence and othering, discussing the concepts of violence and nonviolence in multicultural societies, communal harmony, constructions of the other, truth commissions, state censorship of 'sensitive' issues, fundamentalism and secularism in multifaith societies, and specific cases from recent violence-prone areas. This volume focuses on the South Asian, and more specifically, the Indian context, but is relevant for researchers seeking to understand these issues anywhere in the world.
Book Synopsis The Masks of the Political God by : Luca Ozzano
Download or read book The Masks of the Political God written by Luca Ozzano and published by ECPR Press. This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the influence of religion on political parties and party politics in contemporary democracies. To do so, it compares five cases of democracies belonging to different geographic-cultural areas, and marked by different religious majorities: India, Israel, Italy, Turkey, and the US. The time span of the analysis is the period between 1980 (year which can be conventionally regarded as a turning point for the return of religion in the public and the political spheres at the global level), and the present day. Unlike most works on religion and parties, this book does not simply take into account officially "religious" parties, but all "religiously oriented parties" (with an influence of religion on party manifestos, constituencies and/or factions) even if they are officially secular. The theoretical framework is provided by the "cleavages theory", which considers some relevant traumatic social events as the origin of specific kinds (or families) of political parties; and by a typology of religiously oriented parties dividing them into five categories: conservative, fundamentalist, progressive, nationalist, and camp party.
Book Synopsis Religiously Oriented Parties and Democratization by : Luca Ozzano
Download or read book Religiously Oriented Parties and Democratization written by Luca Ozzano and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-03 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the surprise of both academics and policy-makers, religion has not been relegated entirely to the private sphere; quite the contrary. Over the last few decades, religion has begun to play a significant role in public affairs and, in many cases, directly in political systems. This edited volume analyses in detail how religion and religious precepts inform the ideology, strategies and electoral behaviour of political parties. Working with an original and innovative typology of religiously oriented political parties, the book examines cases from different regions of the world and different religious traditions to highlight the significance of religion for party politics. This interest for religiously oriented parties is combined with an interest in processes of democratic change and democratic consolidation. Political parties are central to the success of processes of democratization while religion is seen in many circles as an element that prevents such success because it is perceived to be a polarising factor detrimental to the consensus necessary to build a liberal-democratic system. Through the different case-studies presented here, a much more complex picture emerges, where religiously oriented political parties perform very different and often contradicting roles with respect to democratic change. This book was published as a special issue of Democratization.
Book Synopsis The Shias of Pakistan by : Andreas Rieck
Download or read book The Shias of Pakistan written by Andreas Rieck and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-15 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Shias of Pakistan are the world's second largest Shia community after that of Iran, but comprise only 10-15 per cent of Pakistan's population. In recent decades Sunni extremists have increasingly targeted them with hate propaganda and terrorism, yet paradoxically Shias have always been fully integrated into all sections of political, professional and social life without suffering any discrimination. In mainstream politics, the Shia- Sunni divide has never been an issue in Pakistan. Shia politicians in Pakistan have usually downplayed their religious beliefs, but there have always been individuals and groups who emphasised their Shia identity, and who zealously campaigned for equal rights for the Shias wherever and whenever they perceived these to be threatened. Shia 'ulama' have been at the forefront of communal activism in Pakistan since 1949, but Shia laymen also participated in such organisations, as they had in pre-partition India. Based mainly on Urdu sources, Rieck's book examines, first, the history of Pakistan's Shias, including their communal organisations, the growth of the Shia 'ulama' class, of religious schools and rivalry between "orthodox" "ulama" and popular preachers; second, the outcome of lobbying of successive Pakistan governments by Shia organisations; and third, the Shia-Sunni conflict, which is increasingly virulent due to the state's failure to combat Sunni extremism.
Book Synopsis The Muslim Question in Assam and Northeast India by : Monoj Kumar Nath
Download or read book The Muslim Question in Assam and Northeast India written by Monoj Kumar Nath and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a systematic study of the transformation of the specific socio-political identity of the Muslims in Assam. It discusses the issues of Muslims under India’s ‘indigenous secularism’, Hindu nationalism and the rise of majoritarian politics; Muslim immigration into Assam after Independence; the Assam Movement and the shift of Muslims from being a vote bank to an autonomous force in the post-Partition politics of Assam; the role of Jamiat; and the divide between Assamese and the neo-Assamese. It explores the history and contemporary politics of the state to show how they shape the new context of Muslim identity in Assam, where previously an Assamese identity often prevailed over religious and linguistic identity. With the current debates on illegal immigration, the National Register of Citizens of India (NRC) and the Citizenship (Amendment) Act 2019, this book will be a timely addition to the existing literature on Muslim minority politics in Assam and northeast India. This book will be useful to scholars and researchers of political science, sociology, political sociology, minority studies, northeast India studies, demography and immigration studies, and development studies. It will interest those concerned with minority politics, communal politics, identity politics, migration, citizenship issues, and South Asian studies.

Book Synopsis Hindu Nationalism and the Language of Politics in Late Colonial India by : William Gould
Download or read book Hindu Nationalism and the Language of Politics in Late Colonial India written by William Gould and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-04-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book William Gould explores what is arguably one of the most important and controversial themes in twentieth-century Indian history and politics: the nature of Hindu nationalism as an ideology and political language. Rather than concentrating on the main institutions of the Hindu Right in India as other studies have done, the author uses a variety of historical sources to analyse how Hindu nationalism affected the supposedly secularist Congress in the key state of Uttar Pradesh. In this way, the author offers an alternative assessment of how these languages and ideologies transformed the relationship between Congress and north Indian Muslims. The book makes a major contribution to historical analyses of the critical last two decades before Partition and Independence in 1947, which will be of value to scholars interested in historical and contemporary Hindu nationalism, and to students researching the final stages of colonial power in India.

Book Synopsis The Puzzle of India's Governance by : Subrata K. Mitra
Download or read book The Puzzle of India's Governance written by Subrata K. Mitra and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-05-07 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India no longer gets an easy ride as the world's largest democracy. Spectacular terrorist attacks on its Parliament and places of worship, communal riots of unprecedented ferocity, lingering separatist insurgency and violent caste conflict in impoverished regions have combined to cause a closer appraisal of India's capacity to sustain the rule of law. This book shows how governance is high when people follow the rules of transaction, derived from binding custom, legislation, administrative practices and the constitution. The key question that underpins this analysis is why do some people, sometimes, follow rules and not others? This study responds to this central question by looking at analytical narratives of political order in six Indian regional States, surveys of social and political attitudes and extended interviews with political leaders, administrators and police officers. It shows how, by drawing on the logic of human ingenuity, driven by self interest rather than mechanical adherence to tradition and ideology, these regional elites can design institutions and promote security, welfare and identity which enhance governance.
