This omnibus brings together three landmark books by him that describe an arc from a critique of nationalism to a critique of history. By uncovering the layered character of Indian nationalism and underlining the contests between classes, communities, and aspirations that went into its making, The Ascendancy of the Congress in Uttar Pradesh helps to transform the received understanding of the Indian national movement.

In Remembering Partition, Gyanendra Pandey turns to a more direct investigation of the matter of collective violence, and the history and memory of such violence in the making of communities and nations, in the Indian subcontinent and elsewhere. Unified by an attention to two questions, 'Whose nation is this?" and Whose history? this collection raises a fundamental question about what counts as the historical a question that is adjacent to feminist and other critiques of the declared boundaries of the political.

An indispensable collection for scholars and students of modern South Asian history, sociology, anthropology, and politics as well as those interested in subaltern, postcolonial and cultural studies,
