Conclusion. 330 $aIn this book William Gould explores what is arguably one of the most important and controversial themes in twentieth-century Indian history and politics: the nature of Hindu nationalism as an ideology and political language. Rather than concentrating on the main institutions of the Hindu Right in India as other studies have done, the author uses a variety of historical sources to analyse how Hindu nationalism affected the supposedly secularist Congress in the key state of Uttar Pradesh. In this way, the author offers an alternative assessment of how these languages and ideologies transformed the relationship between Congress and north Indian Muslims. The book makes a major contribution to historical analyses of the critical last two decades before Partition and Independence in 1947, which will be of value to scholars interested in historical and contemporary Hindu nationalism, and to students researching the final stages of colonial power in India. 410 0$aCambridge studies in Indian history and society. ;$v11. 517 3 $aHindu Nationalism & the Language of Politics in Late Colonial India 606 $aSecularism$zIndia 606 $aNationalism$zIndia 606 $aReligion and politics$zIndia 615 0$aSecularism 615 0$aNationalism 615 0$aReligion and politics 676 $a320.54/0954/09041 700 $aGould$b William$f1973-$0322343 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457924403321 996 $aHindu nationalism and the language of politics in late colonial India$92467225 997 $aUNINA
