The Brahminical Inscribed in Body - Politic

G. Aloysius
The Brahminical Inscribed in Body-politic

"The crucial point in this explanation, for the purpose on hand is this: that what came to be viewed and valorized as nationalism (that is, anti-colonialism) here, arose at the very juncture of the Imperialists’ attempts at larger inclusion (for whatever reason) in response to the demand; of the hitherto excluded/subalternised masses.
Unless this root force in all its complex dimensions, is researched, recognized, related, resisted and finally resolved, the subcontinent, one could conclude, would for a long time to come be constrained to dwell in the nether world of what could truly be described as post-colonial predicament."
