O knihe
The rise of ethnic and religious conflicts in the post-Cold War era has
reawakened consideration of the future of nationalism and the nation
state. The Indian subcontinent with its myriad ethnic, religious and
linguistic divides provides a focus for examination of the interplay
between nationalism, religion and ethnicity. The region's growing
violence and instability is in part a result of this process, sharpened
by social inequalities and the struggle to control scarce resources.
'India and Pakistan' provides an historical understanding of the
chequered process of nation-building in the subcontinent. In particular,
Talbot examines the role of 'parochial' allegiances and the impact of
contemporary processes of economic and cultural globalisation on
nationalist and localist allegiances. And, in introducing the
increasingly important role of overseas South Asian communities in the
political mobilization of the homeland, the student is shown the
complexities of South Asian society and the effects of its relationship
with the state on the process of nation-building in India and Pakistan.
