Anand, Dibyesh.

Hindu nationalism in India and the politics of fear[electronic resource] /Dibyesh Anand. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2011. - 1 online resource (x, 197 p.)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Hindu Nationalism in India -- Hindu Nation Under Siege -- Pornosexualising 'the Muslim' -- The Unawakened India -- Awakening the Hindu Mind and the Hindu Body -- The Awakened Hindu India - Ayodhya and Gujarat -- Politics of Fear -- Appendix A: Excerpts from Islam X-Rayed, an undated internal manual produced by Rashtra Chetna Prakashan in the name of 'A Board of Experts on Islam'.

Hindutva in India is a chauvinist and majoritarian political ideology that conjures up the image of a peaceful Hindu Self vis-a-vis the threatening minority Other. It is porno-nationalism in its obsessive preoccupation with the predatory sexuality of the putative Muslim figure and the dangers to the integrity of the Hindu bodies. The proponents of Hindutva mobilize and generate negative stereotypes of Islam and putative Muslims to legitimize violence against actual Muslims living in India. Adopting a critical ethnographic approach, this book investigates myriad ways in which the discourses of culture, insecurity, gender, identity, and violence intersect in Hindu nationalism's reactionary and right-wing politics of fear and imagination.
