This volume examines issues of history and political economy that are central to the problems of nationalism, democracy, and development. The contributors, including Amartya Sen and Pranab Bardhan, question the dichotomy between secular nationalism and religious communalism and take issue with cultural critiques of modernity and nationalism.

... this book is a trenchant critique of a current intellectual fashion ... (Rajat Kanta Ray, The Book Review Vol.XXI No.8)
This volume examines issues of history and political economy relevant to nationalism, democracy and development in India. Persisting material deprivation - the lack of substantive democracy and development - is not addressed, the contributors argue, by cultural critiques so much in vogue.
