This book considers the remarkable transformations that have taken place in India since 1980, a period that began with the assassination of the formidable Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.

Produktbeschreibung
This book considers the remarkable transformations that have taken place in India since 1980, a period that began with the assassination of the formidable Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. Her death, and that of her son Rajiv seven years later, marked the end of the Nehru-Gandhi era. Although the country remains one of the few democracies in the developing world, many of the policies instigated by these earlier regimes have been swept away to make room for dramatic alterations in the political, economic and social landscape. Sumit Ganguly and Rahul Mukherji, two leading political scientists of South Asia, chart these developments with particular reference to social and political mobilization, the rise of the BJP and its challenge to Nehruvian secularism and the changes to foreign policy that, in combination with its meteoric economic development, have ensured India a significant place on the world stage.

Rezensionen
'... this book has two daunting tasks: introducing India to those new to the country, yet adding value for those more familiar with it; and focusing on recent developments, while at the same time providing sufficient historical background. This short, punchy volume manages these tasks admirably well ... this is a solid piece of work that succeeds admirably at speaking authoritatively to different audiences. It belongs on the bookshelf of those approaching India for the first time, as well as those seeking a reference work on the country.' Asian Journal of Social Science
