The Routledge Handbook of Populism in the Asia Pacific
This handbook brings national and thematic case studies together to examine a variety of populist politics from local and comparative perspectives in the Asia Pacific. The chapters consider key and cross cutting themes such as populism and nationalism, religion, ethnicity and gender, as well as authoritarianism. They show how populist politics alters the way governments mediate state-society relations. The essays in this volume consider: diverse …
Covid-19 and the Clash of Narratives
This paper discusses the impact of Covid-19 on Islamist narratives of end time scenarios that predict the annihilation of a corrupted world and its ultimate replacement by a world order based exclusively on Islam. It does this against the backdrop of Islam’s antagonistic relationship with the West, particularly from the ending of the Cold War in the early 1990s to the present day, a relationship conducted within the shadow of the US’s attempts to…
Recognition and Dissent
This article argues that at its core, the debate on the role and place of Islam in Pakistan, is constitutional. The issues concerning Islamic law, the raison d'être of the state, defining the nation and mapping the locus of sovereignty are of constitutional import and concern. At the same time, the recognition of Islam has been critical to the legitimacy of Pakistani constitutions. However, the political structures and institutions prescribed to …
Governance and Political Adaptation in Fragile States
A Republic in the Making. India in the 1950s, by Gyanesh Kudaisya
Denis Wright (1947–2013)
It will be very sad news for his many friends and colleagues in the South Asian Studies Association of Australia (SASA) to learn that Dr. Denis Wright, another stalwart of the Association, died in Armidale on 7 December. Denis was one of those rare academics who shunned the limelight and was prepared to work tirelessly and unheralded behind the scenes as a productive scholar, highly-rated teacher and valuable colleague. It is therefore fitting th…
Pakistan, the BJP, and the politics of identity
When we look back at over half a century of the political histories ofIndia and Pakistan, there is one development that outshines all others. The debate over the basis of identity, which began in earnest in the immediate run-up to independence, continues to engage both countries. What we see are two states still contesting the ideological underpinnings of nation; still ostensibly wrestling with tensions that were evident at the time of partition

Sinnappah Arasaratnam (1932–1998)
Counsels of despair or withdrawals with Honour
Partition was an answer sometimes adopted by Britain as it sought to resolve the dilemmas of decolonization in circumstances where the populations of the emerging nations were irreconcilably divided. Despite negative popular images associated with all of the cases examined, partition was also the only way of ensuring a controlled transfer of power and minimizing chaos. During the process of decolonization, Britain manoeuvred to remain where possi…
Why worry about child labour
A conversation about South Asian studies with Sinnappah Arasaratnam
South Asian Studies Overseas
It is particularly apposite to review the state of South Asian studies in Britain, Australia, and New Zealand for the crossroads of their development and provision have dearly been reached. In the late 1960s, when I first became "South Asia-minded," South Asian studies were flourishing and clearly mainstream. Everywhere one looked there was expansion and funding with research activity and publishing output to match. In Britain, schools of postgra…

Irish Nationalism and the British Empire in the Late Nineteenth Century
In the historiography of Irish nationalism in the late nineteenth century the emphasis is less on the ideological content and complexities of nationalist thought than on its political expression. That is to do less than justice, perhaps, to the brief sallies by L. McCaffrey on Isaac Butt’s ‘federalism’[1] and F. S. L. Lyons on Charles Stewart Parnell’s economic ideas[2] and, certainly, to the more substantial Ireland’s English Question by Patrick…
Indian Nationalist Development and the Influence of Irish Home Rule, 1870-1886
In the historiography of Indian nationalism the didactic impact of the West is generally recognized but seldom detailed. The purpose of this paper is to elucidate the nature of Ireland's contribution to the development of an Indian national consciousness in the formative phase of political awakening. It is hoped to establish that while many of the ideals of civic freedom and patriotism were derived from continental sources, the immediate lessons …
