Pages : 299
Book Description
Development during the decade of nineties, have led to all round apprehensions about the survival of Indian secularism. The main reason behind this feeling is the growing importance of the Bharatiya Janata Party which inspired and continues to owe allegiance to the ideal of Hindu Rashtriya which has been fervently pursued by the Rashtriya Swayanisewak Sangh. India flaunts to the world the fact that it opted for secular-democratic polity on the morrow of the country s division to carve out of it a separate state based oil religion. For half a century the electorate have consistently extended, support to the parties and groups upholding that principle in performance to those who have been trying to challenge them. In terms of future prospects what needs to be considered is why and how a change has set in the mood of people that the BJP has become the lead party and whether there are credible chances for arresting its onward march. But before that we must clarify what we mean by Indian secularism.

Religious Difference in a Secular Age

Book Description
How secular governance in the Middle East is making life worse—not better—for religious minorities The plight of religious minorities in the Middle East is often attributed to the failure of secularism to take root in the region. Religious Difference in a Secular Age challenges this assessment by examining four cornerstones of secularism—political and civil equality, minority rights, religious freedom, and the legal separation of private and public domains. Drawing on her extensive fieldwork in Egypt with Coptic Orthodox Christians and Bahais—religious minorities in a predominantly Muslim country—Saba Mahmood shows how modern secular governance has exacerbated religious tensions and inequalities rather than reduced them. Tracing the historical career of secular legal concepts in the colonial and postcolonial Middle East, she explores how contradictions at the very heart of political secularism have aggravated and amplified existing forms of Islamic hierarchy, bringing minority relations in Egypt to a new historical impasse. Through a close examination of Egyptian court cases and constitutional debates about minority rights, conflicts around family law, and controversies over freedom of expression, Mahmood invites us to reflect on the entwined histories of secularism in the Middle East and Europe. A provocative work of scholarship, Religious Difference in a Secular Age challenges us to rethink the promise and limits of the secular ideal of religious equality.
