Communalism, Caste and Hindu Nationalism: The Violence in Gujarat
Shani, Ornit (University of Haifa, Israel)
Ornit Shani examines the rise of Hindu nationalism, asking why distinct groups of Hindus, deeply divided by caste, mobilised on the basis of unitary Hindu nationalism, and why the Hindu nationalist rhetoric about the threat of the Muslim minority was so persuasive to the Hindu majority.
