Empowering Visions [PDF ebook] 
The Politics of Representation in Hindu Nationalism

Ajutor

This new study looks at the crucial role played by audiovisual media in Hindu cultural nationalism. The application of new media technology in the context of the construction of ‘Indianness’ by Hindutva’s main political wing, the Bharatiya Janata Party (Party of the Indian People, BJP), is a fascinating example of in-house indoctrination and emotive mobilization that demands critical attention.
