Jnu Nationalism and India's Civil War - Hardcover
by Makarand R. Paranjape (Author)
9 February 2016: Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) erupted with
'anti-national' slogans. Arrests of student leaders, the shutdown of the
university, a lecture series on 'What the Nation Needs to Know', a student's
disappearance, another's suicide and a number of even more disruptive
protests ensued.
JNU: Nationalism and India's Uncivil War, by a long-standing JNU professor,
is a ringside account of what happened. Delicately and incisively crafted,
it is an empathetic insider's account of JNU's problems from an expert
in the field of higher education. Through this book, the author makes an
impassioned plea to transform rather than destroy JNU, as also reform
higher education. But more than that, this book is also a history of our
times, of India's ongoing transformation, the story of the changing self apprehension of a nation.
Examining the multiple meanings of nationalism in our time, Paranjape delves
deeply into what it means to be an Indian today. He offers his perception
and understanding of the new India that is fast emerging as India enters
its 75th year of Independence.
