Book Synopsis The Construction of History and Nationalism in India by : Sylvie Guichard
Book excerpt: Most studies on nations and nationalism argue that history, or more precisely a 'common past', is crucial for the process of national identity building. This book focuses on the construction, elaboration and negotiation of the narratives that have become official history in India.
