During the past two decades, at the same time that the South Asian presence in the U.S. and Europe has become an increasingly visible part of mainstream social life and popular culture, scholars of South Asian descent have come to occupy many prominent positions within the Western academy, contributing to the development of disciplines across the social sciences and humanities. In this collection of highly personal essays, leading figures in anthropology, history, and cultural and literary studies reflect on the complex interplay between individual and collective trajectories, examining their own experiences as students, scholars, and teachers. Their narratives trace the arc of interactions between East and West from the late colonial period, through Indian Independence, the Cold War, the radicalism of the 1960s, and the development of subaltern and postcolonial studies, to the current conjuncture. Throughout, these writers explore the past and future significance of area studies as a paradigm for education and scholarship.Contributors are Shahid Amin, Arjun Appadurai, Urvashi Butalia, Dipesh Chakrabarty, Partha Chatterjee, Vasudha Dalmia, Prasenjit Duara, Ramachandra Guha, Akhil Gupta, Sudipta Kaviraj, Purnima Mankekar, Gyan Prakash, and Sanjay Subrahmanyam.

This is one of the earliest books to present a collection of writings on the effects of globalization on India and Indian society. The editors have assembled a team of eminent academics to present a series of critical discussions about important issues of economy and agriculture, education and language, and culture and religion, based on ethnographic case studies from different localities in India. Globalizing India is a major contribution to South Asian Studies, interrogating a topic of contemporary importance – both within the region and internationally.

Comment l’Inde, berceau d’une civilisation millénaire, est-elle devenue une nation ? De quelles façons la race, la culture, la langue et la religion ont-elles contribué à façonner la nation dans cette démocratie de plus d’un milliard d’habitants ? C’est par l’étude de quelques symboles à la fois émotionnels et mobilisateurs, comme la patrie, la carte, la vache, la mère, la déesse, l’ermitage, la procession, que Jackie Assayag a choisi d’éclairer la fabrique du nationalisme et la construction de l’État-nation en Asie du Sud, où cohabitent neuf cents millions d’hindous et plus de deux cents millions de musulmans. Cette enquête sur les traditions autochtones ou importées — liées à l’amour de la patrie et à la haine de l’étranger — montre la créativité des cultures et la complexité des sociétés depuis la colonisation et jusqu’à l’âge dit de la mondialisation. Où l’on découvre les formes originales qu’ont pris l’État-nation, le nationalisme et la xénophobie hors de l’Europe. Jackie Assayag est directeur de recherche au CNRS et membre du Centre d’études de l’Inde et de l’Asie du Sud à l’EHESS. Il a notamment publié La Colère de la déesse décapitée, Au Confluent de deux rivières et L’Inde fabuleuse.
