Summary, etc. Beginning with a background chapter that discusses the cultural and educational movements which arose among the North Indian Muslim elites in the last quarter of the nineteenth century and the early twentieth century, the author proceeds in this work to analyse the Khilafat movement in detail in the subsequent chapters. t These discuss the emergence of the movement in <br/>1919-20 and the alliance with the Congress leaders; the working out of mass contact methods and organization at the height of the Khilafat movement and non-cooperation in 1920-1; and the decline and collapse of the movement from 1922-4, which saw the break up of the nationalist alliance. splits in the Khilafat organization and the reactions of its leadership to the removal of <br/>the Sultan of Turkey, the symbol of its earlier solidarity. Based not only on sources in English, but, perhaps more importantly, on extensive use of material in Urdu, this study reveals the several levels at which the Khilafat movement existed and functioned. <br/>'(The author shows that it was a campaign by a particular group of Indian Muslim leaders to unite their community politically by means of religious and cultural symbols meaningful to all strata of that community. As such, it could be viewed as a quest for pan-Indian Islam, rather than a pan-Islamic movement. If mobilized, a united Indian Muslim constituency would permit genuine Muslim participation in the nationalist movement and. at the same time, offset the minority status of the community by strengthening <br/>its ability to bargain, whether with the British or Hindus.
