9 February 2016: Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) erupted with 'anti-national' slogans. Arrests of student leaders, the shutdown of the university, a lecture series on 'What the Nation Needs to Know', a student's disappearance, another's suicide and a number of even more disruptive protests ensued. JNU: Nationalism and India's Uncivil War, by a long-standing JNU professor, is a ringside account of what happened. Delicately and incisively crafted, it is an empathetic insider's account of JNU's problems from an expert in the field of higher education. Through this book, the author makes an impassioned plea to transform rather than destroy JNU, as also reform higher education. But more than that, this book is also a history of our times, of India's ongoing transformation, the story of the changing self apprehension of a nation. Examining the multiple meanings of nationalism in our time, Paranjape delves deeply into what it means to be an Indian today. He offers his perception and understanding of the new India that is fast emerging as India enters its 75th year of Independence.
