How did Jawaharlal Nehru come to lead the Indian nationalist movement and how did he sustain his leadership as the first Prime Minister of independent India. Nehru's vision of India its roots in Indian politics and society as well as its viability have been central to historical and present day views of India. This engaging new biography dispels many myths surrounding Nehru and distinguishes between the icon he has become and the politician he actually was. Benjamin Zachariah places Nehru in the context of the issues of his times including the central theme of nationalism the impact of cold war pressures on India and the transition from colonial control to a precarious independence. Connecting the domestic and international aspects of his political life and ideology this study provides a fascinating insight into Nehru his times and his legacy. 300 pp. …

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. Postcolonial theory and its bedfellow, decolonial theory, are the most flourishing products of academia in recent times. Transcending their origins in universities and literary criticism, and clustering around what is coming to be known as 'theory from the Global South', their guiding assumptions have leaked into the public domain and become shibboleths with which to acknowledge historically victimised communities. With this success has come a disturbing trend: political activity operates based on clumsy victimhood analogies, and much of its rhetoric is deliberately anti-rational, reproducing and perpetuating the manufactured categories of racist and sectarian imaginations.Benjamin Zachariah examines this phenomenon and its worrying affinities with voelkisch thinking. A product of nineteenth-century romantic nationalism, voelkisch is an adjective that indicates a community of blood, soil and race. These aspects are less explicit in its newer guises, which instead invoke communities of collective memory. Nonetheless, Zachariah argues, the older form of collective belonging remains embedded in the apparently new attitudes, as a compulsory community of inherited victimhood and organic belonging.Striking and thought-provoking, this book is a major intervention that will be of interest to anyone concerned by the more insidious side of postcolonialism.
