Political Identity in South Asia, first published in 1979, delves into the intricate interplay between language, religion, and political identity. While nationalism forms a part of this broader concept, the contributors to this volume are deeply interested in exploring a wide array of political phenomena within South Asia. A central focus lies in examining the role of linguistic and religious factors in shaping political identities and formulating new political demands. However, it is recognized that these factors operate within the broader context of grander political and economic forces. Within this framework, three papers specifically delve into the experiences of Muslims in South Asia, while three others explore the dynamics of southern India, where language has played a significant role. Two additional papers focus on Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, while one examines tribal populations in India. To conclude, the volume is complemented by two more general essays that provide broader insights into the subject of political identity. This book holds immense appeal to students of sociology, history, South Asian studies, and ethnic studies, as it offers valuable perspectives and insights into the complex dynamics of language, religion, and political identity in South Asia.
