The book
examines the social and social
psychological processes that led up to the
Partition of the Indian
subcontinent in 1947. It works from a dual corpus: the historians' for
medieval and modern India, the sociologists' for Indian
society It moves back and forth between evidence and general, or theoretical, understanding, and focuses on social and psychological processes, placing the strictly political domain on the margin. It recognizes long-term continuities in the idiom of conflict (as well as of cooperation), and shows that, by 1900, the conflicts and the animosities were gathering a self-aggravating momentum..
