About the Book
In this insightful work, eminent historian R. S. Sharma examines the complex concepts of community and communalism, focusing particularly on their evolution and expression in the Indian context. The book explains how communities can be formed on various bases such as ethnicity, profession, common habitation, caste affiliation, and religious identity. While communalism is often associated with religious communities, Sharma highlights how, in India, it has been predominantly understood through the nature of relations between Hindus and Muslims. The book also addresses more recent developments, including the emergence of an assertive communal identity based on Sikh religious organization. Through a historical and analytical approach, the author explores the roots, dynamics, and socio-political implications of communalism, making this work essential for understanding communal relations and conflicts in modern India.
