Caste, Constitution, Court, Equality
How do democratic ideals and constitutional provisions of inclusive citizenship and “reasonable classification” of universal rights to combat social oppression and promote social justice get worked out in the crannies of state policies, citizen politics and legislative and legal pronouncements? This article addresses these issues by revisiting the convoluted trajectory of positive discrimination (termed “reservation”) in India as an illustrative …
Prachi Deshpande. Scripts of Power
Afterword
The 'texts' portion of this part of the publication has explored narratives of religious individualisation that have set in motion discourses which, to varying degrees, empower and promote religious individualisation. The authors of these narratives are, in a sense, the founders of discursivity, from whom currents of thought seem to flow which have informed modes of religious individualisation. It is, however, often the 'modes of circulation, val…
Religious individualisation and collective bhakti
The author remains a mettlesome subject in late modernism', writes Christian Novetzke, 'confounding a simple definition of what it is to be an author' (Novetzke 2003, 214).1 Novetzke skilfully unravels the distinct layers of authorship that went into the conferral of 'authority' on one particular figure, Namdev, in traditions 'not born of modernity yet fully present in the modern world'. In doing so, he argues against the modern notion of the aut…

John Stratton Hawley. A Storm of Songs
Is another study of bhakti or the “bhakti movement” in India necessary at a time when religion and nation have come together in perilous ways? John Stratton Hawley persuasively answers “yes” in this well-researched work. He insists on the necessity of unearthing the “history” that lies behind ideas, particularly the idea of bhakti and of the bhakti movement, in order to dislodge the “assumed fact” of their natural long-term, transhistorical, and …
Religion, Power and Law in Twentieth Century India
Important works within History, Anthropology and Political Theory have tracked the genealogies of religion and politics (power), queried their construction as neat categories and underscored their imbrication. Drawing upon such works, this essay focuses on the long and convoluted interaction of a radical religion of Orissa, eastern India, and the law, in order to highlight how religion and state power impinge upon and shape each other. Through a …
Menús modernos
Este ensayo examina una dimensión relativamente inexplorada del discurso de nación y familia en la India de finales del siglo XIX. El interés se centra en la salud en la configuración de una familia nueva, “moderna”, como la base de una nación sana, y la importancia del ama de casa ágil como guardián de la salud y la higiene de la familia. Este enfoque innovador posibilita una lectura distinta del discurso nacionalista y proporciona elementos par…
Introducción
Jeno basonar sera basa rasanae (sepa que el mejor nido del deseo se encuentra en la lengua). Así escribió en una de sus creaciones el poeta bengalí Rabindranath Tagore, premio Nobel de literatura. En este poema, llamado “Nimantran” (“Invitación”, publicado en Bithika, 1935), el poeta había evocado, de manera seductora, los placeres innatos del amor y el cuidado, articulados en el delicado acto de servir la comida, un acto que debía hacer la esper…

Oscilaciones nacionalistas
Este ensayo explora la filosofía y métodos de lucha política de Gandhi a la luz de la percepción y apropiación que hizo de éstos Vallabhbhai Patel, uno de los discípulos clave de Gandhi y un político influyente en la lucha nacionalista por la independencia india. Por medio de un análisis sistemático y matizado de la trayectoria de Vallabhbhai Patel, se muestra cómo las ideas de Gandhi, basadas en un quehacer político regido por la moral y la étic…
Caste, race and difference
This article reconsiders the past and the present of Dalit and lower-caste struggle in India, including recent efforts to link caste and race in order to make a common platform against discrimination at international fora. It explores the burden of colonial concepts and statist imaginaries in the shaping of objectified identities by Dalits, especially as they seize upon and crucially rework such categories. Critically engaging with the notion of …
