Summary, etc. | During the last two decades or so the increasing use of religious symbols and idioms in politics and its reliance on violence as a dominant mode of political and social discourse are sending unmistakable signals. These signals are generating fear-the fear of disintegration of Indian civilization and also the emergence of a prototype of fascism in society and politics.<br/><br/>This book is an attempt to understand the shifts in inter-religious and caste dialogue and their relationship with politics, economy and society. A detailed analysis trying to capture the variations in the form of social conflicts taking shape in different parts of the country and their impact on the future of Indian democracy and secularism has been attempted.<br/><br/>Pramod Kumar, a well known scholar has made a serious and systematic attempt to lay bare the reasons, content and forms of Communalism and Communal riots in India.<br/><br/>This study is not only an effort to understand the phenomenon of Communalism and Communal riots, but throws sufficient light to find the way out. This book will have immense value for those who have faith in a secular and democratic society. |
