| 520 | _aThis book explores the fate of some of the central concepts in the mainstream culture of Indian politics-ranging from secularism, development, and terrorism to dissent and history. The analysis is based on a tacit cultural and psychological biography of the modern nation-state in South Asia. The book offers an alternative, dissenting perspective on Indian democracy in which some key elements of the ideology of the state, such as nationalism and national security, have an attenuated status. https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-romance-of-the-state-9780195693331?cc=us&lang=en&# | ||
