eBook
From the margins to the mainstream : institutionalising minorities in South Asia
2016
Overview
A brilliant analysis of the socio-political processes that help us understand the challenges faced by marginalized populations for representation and recognition in India. The premise of democratic politics is that all citizens are equal and have an equal right to a say in national politics. This definition of democracy, however, is observed far more in the breach than in practice. Muslims, Dalits and Adivasis continue their struggle to seek entry into the institution from which they seem to be barred. Drawing on in-depth case studies the book explores how marginalized groups that achieve a degree of political inclusion often discover that it amounts to 'adverse incorporation' which is disempowering because it requires them to moderate or abandon key demands. The book is a unique work on the irony of 'institutionalization'.
