Summary:
"Luna Sabastian traces the evolution of Hindutva since the 1920s, arguing that it is a form of fascism. Influenced by Euro-American race thought, but also departing from it, Hindutva eschews genocide and ethnic cleansing in favor of the violent absorption of minorities and has developed distinctive notions of sovereignty and caste."-- Provided by publisher.
