Book desription: New Delhi, India: South Asian Publishers, 1997. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Indian state and society have yet to resolve the issue of accomodation pluralities - religious, socio-cultural, linguistic, regional, etc.; the apparent contradiction between between centralized polity and politicized diversities further complicates and compounds the problem; this study suggests that neither the modernization theory of homogenized nation-state formation nor the post-modernist theory of legitimizing identity to the extent of fragmenting the nation is an appropriate model of nation-building and state formation in India; the authors examine the complexities of the problem and the issues involved in the process of nation-building and state formation (black cloth with white lettering, corners slightly bumped, green dust jacket with slight edgewear, otherwise a bright, clean, tight copy)
