Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indian society is often described as one with ‘unity in diversity’ and as a composite culture. Since independence, India has also been termed ‘democratic’ and ‘secular’. However, the discernible cracks that have appeared in recent years in these conceptualisations have led to contentious debates about the very nature of Indian society. Focusing on different facets of this exacerbating crisis, this book analyses the various issues confronting India’s society and polity today which can assume crisis proportions if not tackled judiciously and expeditiously.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Foundations of the Composite Culture in India, the focus of the author is the process of establishment of Hindu-Muslim unity as a result of historical, social and cultural factors over a period of ten centuries. Traversing this era, he reveals how the Muslim rulers contributed to such harmony and how the two cultures exchanged and accepted each other's tenets to enrich and formulate a composite Indian culture.

Download or read book Composite Culture a Reappraisal written by Omprakash Srivastav and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book Composite Culture - A Reappraisal deals with the mingling of external with the indigenous in different ways in the society. Our objective is to present a comprehensive picture of composite culture of medieval as well as modern India in its varied dimensions and perspectives. The immigrants from Central and West Asia from different cultural, social and political background started to began accommodating themselves to the customs and cultures of India. This mingling has the impact on the indigenous in varied ways in the realms of art, architecture, literature, music, social and political institutions and on technology etc. Akbar s ideas and policies not only encouraged such admixture, but also much innovation as well. There was also a conscious effort to initiate inter-cultural communication through translations and the study of different religious and social traditions. The Mughal Empire thus further strengthened the concept of India as a multicultural country, with a preponderance of unifying features. The present book makes an attempt to highlight the precious legacy not only from the national integration point of view but the other aspects of the society also.

Book excerpt: "Doss examines how the colonial construct of communalism through the fault lines of the supposed religious neutrality, the hunger for the bread of life, the establishment of exclusive village settlements for the proselytes, the rhetoric of Victorian morality, the booby-traps of modernity, and the subversion of Indian cultural heritage resulted in a radical reorientation of religious allegiance that created a perpetual detachment between proselytes and the 'others'. Exploring the trajectories of communalism, Doss demonstrates how the multicultural Indian society, known widely for its composite culture, and secular convictions were categorized, compartmentalized, and communalized by the racialized religious pretentions. A vital read for historians, political scientists, sociologists, anthropologists, and all those who are interested in religions, cultures, identity politics, and decolonization in modern India"--
