About This Item
Sahibabad, UP India: Vikas, 1980. Cloth. Very Good/good +. 13-6-15. To many communalism is a natural result of people being 'different' from each other. However, in looking at the way this scourge has developed in India and Malaysia, Naidu shows, through both fieldwork results and published sources, how often class comes into play in stoking such unrest. She argues that the mix of class and communalism can only impede development. In this work she unpicks how this mix works in both India and Malaysia and looks for some ways out of the mess. 173 pages. The contents include 1 - The Communal Problem: An Introduction, 2 - Economic Compulsions Behind Communalism, 3 - Communalism and the Political Process, 4 - Communal Riots & 5 - Policy Perspectives on the Communal Cleavage in Plural Societies.
