Emphasizing ,Others': the emergence of Hindu nationalism in a central Indian tribal community

THE JOURNAL OF THE ROYAL ANTHROPOLOGICAL INSTITUTE, Issue 1 2006
Peggy Froerer
This article is an ethnographic account of the rise of Hindu nationalism in a central Indian ,tribal' (adivasi) community. It is a response to the lack of ethnographic attention within wider nationalist discourse to the kinds of social conditions and processes that have contributed to the manifestation of nationalism at the grass-roots level. It is argued that the successful spread of Hindu nationalism in specifically tribal areas is due to the instrumentalist involvement of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), a militant Hindu nationalist organization, in local affairs. The outcome of such involvement is the promotion of the threatening ,Other' and the attachment of ethnic group loyalties to a wider nationalist agenda. [source]
