Description: |
Written over the last quarter century, this collection deals with the Muslims of the Indian subcontinent particularly the role of Islamic symbols and identities in public life in India and Pakistan. |
Synopsis: |
The essays in this volume, written over the course of the last quarter century, are intended to contribute to understanding the role that Islamic symbols and identities have come to play in Northern India and, since 1947, in Pakistan. Above all these essays offer a challenge to current negative stereotypes of the Muslim faith, demonstrating that the religion is not characterised by political militancy nor dominated by static traditionalism. |
